Kidsilk Multi
Cowgirlblues’ Kidsilk yarn is a super luxurious and lightweight blend of kid mohair and silk. It is soft and really light to wear. The gorgeous Cowgirlblues colors are luminous and seem to radiate from the fibers. The colors are namesd after Bridget’s favorite female singers or songs that inspired her from her youth. Knit it with standard gauge or over-size needles. Or combine it with another strand to complement the beautfiul colors and to add warmth and weight.
Note about Hand Dyed Yarns – While we love the exquisite colors available in hand dyed yarns, there can be significant variations from skein to skein. Please follow these guidelines to ensure success:
- Purchase enough yarn to complete your project, allowing for a bit of overage, just in case!
- Not all differences in skeins are obvious when comparing skeins.
- For projects that require 2 or more skeins, we highly recommend blending your skeins by using 2 balls at once, alternating every couple of rows from each ball. This should blend any variations between skeins.
