This raw silk 4-ply yarn is hand-spun and hand-dyed. It is strikingly distinctive and reflects light beautifully. Great for lacy shawls. Work double or triple for a sturdier fabric, or mixed with mohair.

Shaman has a rustic and unique character. It is spun right from the cocoon. This batch is sock weight. There are occasional knots and irregularities, that provide character and do not detract from the beauty of the knitted fabric.
