Magpie Fibers Plume Lace
Magpie Fibers Plume Lace is cashmere spun onto a silk core, a true luxury to knit with and to wear. The cashmere brings warmth and a soft halo, while the silk core adds strength and a subtle luster that catches light. Hand-dyed in rich, tonal colorways, Plume Lace creates fabric that's delicate and surprisingly resilient. Knit it alone for airy shawls that float, or hold it double for lightweight garments with plush texture. Plume Lace yarn also really shines when it's held together with fingering or sport weight yarn for depth and softness without bulk. It works brilliantly as a mohair alternative, offering a classic halo and warmth. At 315 yards per featherweight 25-gram skein, a little Plume Lace goes a long way. This is yarn for projects where you want something truly special, where the fiber itself becomes part of the design. As these colorways are hand-dyed, alternating skeins in larger projects will ensure consistency throughout your project.
