Queensland Collection Kathmandu Fingering 26 Purple Petunia

Spun with the finest 19.5 micron Merino wool from South Africa, Kathmandu is a luxury tweed that knits into stunning cardigans, sweaters, wraps & accessories.  The Merino wool is expertly blended with mulberry silk & Mongolian cashmere giving the yarn a very soft hand without sacrificing structure.  Kathmandu is sourced & spun in Italy under strict ethical guidelines.

This light, fingering weight yarn has a beautiful fine gauge for soft knits that may be worn all year long.  The palette is comprised of modern colorways subtly studded with tweedy bits that add a gorgeous, relaxed character to knits.
