Another blue creation, another merry mix of fibres. This has two different wool yarns in the warp; a slub in multi-blues from the Little Wool Company for the thin thread and a bulky unspun also multi-hue from Turkey for one of the thick ones. The other thick yarn is a pale blue boucle from Italy which says it is 35% polamide (nylon), 30% wool, 20% acrylic and 15% alpaca. As if that is not enough the slub weft yarn is a shiny acrylic with the thin being the same as the thin warp. It all makes for a very light throw. It used a total of 581 grams of yarn including the waste. . . finished weight 533g.
I sometimes think I make my throws too long but I do like them when they go the full lenth of my sofa.
