Hearthstone


Well this pretty yarn ended up flying right under my radar, but I'm so glad we found it when I was in last week. 
The Plymouth Hearthstone is a merino and alpaca blend (80/20), so it will have just the right amount of that alpaca drape with some nice durability from the merino wool. Each skein is 436 yards of fingering weight yarn, so one or two will make an ample shawl, and you'll need to 3-5 for a sweater depending on the design and size.
I am pretty much in love with these marls and naturals, so I need to figure out what to make with these four.
