Dashiemouse knows what's up when it comes to sport weight yarn - sport is full of paradoxes. It needs to be strong enough for boot socks, yet soft enough for baby clothes. Garments made from a quality sport weight will be light enough for layering, yet warm enough for winter. By changing gauge it can have either a firm or drapey hand.
Our sturdy, 3-ply sport weight is meant to be worn next to the skin, and with the nylon mixed in you'll have trouble wearing it out. It is a great in-between weight and is easily the most versatile yarn we make. You might find yourself sporting it from head to toe, old sport.
Because this yarn is hand-dyed in small batches, the difference between dye lots can be pronounced. We have chosen to only ever list one dye lot at a time. We twist all the skeins together and photograph them, so the yarn you see in the picture is the yarn you will receive. When we make a new batch, we take a new photo of the new dye lot.
