  • CaMaRose Snefnug [Snowflake]

    2 items left

    Snefnug means “snowflake” in Danish. A beautiful Aran weight yarn from CaMaRose, Snefnug has a cotton mesh tube as the core with a luscious blend of merino and baby alpaca blown into it, making it hard-wearing but super soft, light and airy.

    Snefnug is perfect for baby and children’s knits, as well as oversized adult knits such as sweaters, cardigans, scarves, and beanies, knit on a looser gauge on big needles.

    Yarn Weight: Aran
    Fibre: 55% baby alpaca, 10% extra fine merino wool, 35% cotton
    Length: 110m (120 yds) / 50g ball
    Needle Size: 4 - 6mm (US 6-10)
    Gauge: 12 - 16 sts & 24 rows = 10cm
    Care: handwash^

    ^Handwashing the finished project is recommended. Use a wool detergent and lay flat to dry. Machine washing can shrink the finished project by 7%, but it will stretch in use.

    It is also recommended to knit ribbing a bit tighter as these will stretch in use.
