Lace/fingering weight cone yarns, earth tones


Sold

These yarns are a little heavier in gauge than in the previous post.






#5. gray-burgundy double ply lace weight yarn. This yarn has an interesting color. It is gray, but if you look closely, you see burgundy colored strands of fiber running through it. It looks like wool, but there is no tag. Weighs 11.6 oz. Priced at $8.00
















#6. Camel fingering weight wool. This cone is a light fingering weight double ply. I think it would make a good sock yarn, and I would guess that it might be pure wool, though the tag is gone. It doesn't have the tale-tell acrylic shine, or slippery feel. It has the "matte" feel of wool, if you know what I mean. It weighs 10.5 oz. I'll bet it would dye and I'll use it for socks if it doesn't sell. Offered at $12.

#7. Charcoal gray light fingering weight double ply cone. Probably wool, a thin fingering weight that would probably do for socks. Cone weighs approximately 1 lb. 3.4 oz. Priced at $20. A very nice cone of yarn here.
