Olio
Olio has a feltlike softness in a melange of lush color, swirled together in rich and intense shades. This lovely yarn will make incredible accessories including hats, cowls, scarves and fingerless mitts. Olio will also shine as a garment, especially in a colorwork sweater where the colors will flow in a colorful yoke or make interesting stripes. This yarn should fluff up when blocked.
