Snarl is a most unusual yarn made from polyester and spun into a spiky, textured thread. Knit by hand as approx 4ply or use in the weft (resultant count 3.5nm) to give really interesting results when weaving. It's also brilliant for adding fabulous effects to braids as the spikes twist around the braid and can contrast really well against smoother, shinier threads. It can produce interesting results when couched down into embroideries or trapped within layers of felt. An all round great yarn, but buy now as we have limited supplies! |

It's a gorgeously soft, light ladder yarn that is constructed from 93% nylon and 7% polyester. The colours include some of the most popular shades from the original range, plus new additions. The glitter is woven through the ladder to add a twinkling, slightly crinkled effect to catch the light and add some glamour. Knit into simple scarves, choose from the new patterns we have in stock or dig out your old patterns and have fun. Knit on 4mm pins to a tension of 25 stitches and 34 rows to a 10cm square, or use much larger needles for a lacier effect. click for full range |
