This is a yarn Pam purchased and sent to Kirsten so that she could learn how to make Moebius scarves. (She also sent a few sets of the Harmony Interchangeable needles, which are pretty nifty!!) It is a heavy weight yarn with a beautiful sheen. The label says it is 70% Peruvian Highland Wool, and 30% Superfine Alpaca. Superfine indeed! The heavy yarn shows great stitch definition, worked well on needles 9-15, and knit up beautifully! It even grafted together well with the spit and rub method (if you are unfamiliar with this method, when you reach the end of a skein and need to add more, you simply splay the plies apart, then lay them next to the new skeins splayed plies, get them wet with saliva, then rub vigorously against your jeans. It essentially felts the yarn in that small area, fusing the two ends together into one continuous strand!).
Here are some of the Moebius we made with the Kestrel and Currant colors.
