Our hand-dyed \u003cstrong\u003eHoly Fluff Silky Bouclé Loop in FunkyTown\u003c\/strong\u003e is a glorious skein of squishy loops, silky softness and completely unapologetic colour.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFunkyTown is one of those colourways that refuses to sit quietly in the corner. We've packed it with \u003cstrong\u003ebold reds, zingy yellows, brilliant blues and flashes of fresh green\u003c\/strong\u003e, with the colours dancing through the bouclé loops to create a wonderfully lively, painterly effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd then there's that texture. Oh, that texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade from \u003cstrong\u003e70% Grade A Mulberry Silk and 30% 20.5 micron non-Superwash Merino Wool\u003c\/strong\u003e, this is a seriously special yarn. The silk gives it a beautiful sheen and luxurious softness, while the merino brings warmth and body. The bouclé construction creates all those gorgeous little loops and bumps, giving your finished fabric a wonderfully tactile, almost fluffy character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand dyed by us in our Betchworth studio, each skein is a little work of art in its own right. \u003cstrong\u003eNo two skeins will be identical\u003c\/strong\u003e, so the exact placement of the FunkyTown colours will vary - which is precisely what we love about hand-dyed yarn. You're not buying something that's been churned out to look identical; you're getting your own individual bit of yarny loveliness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough it's a 4-ply yarn, the bouclé texture gives it considerably more presence than a conventional smooth 4-ply. Try it on smaller needles for a denser, highly textured fabric, or go up a few sizes for something more open and airy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's particularly gorgeous for \u003cstrong\u003estatement scarves, cowls, hats, textured garments, cushions and throws\u003c\/strong\u003e, or anywhere you want the yarn itself to be the star of the show. Keep the pattern simple and let FunkyTown do the talking. It's very good at talking.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\"\u003eThe Technical Bits\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e70% Grade A Mulberry Silk\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e30% 20.5 micron non-Superwash Merino Wool\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4-ply weight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100g skein\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApprox. \u003cstrong\u003e400m per 100g\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWPI: 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 ply\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended needle size: \u003cstrong\u003e2.5mm\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTension: 24 stitches \u0026amp; 36 rows\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHand wash with care\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant:\u003c\/strong\u003e As this yarn is hand dyed in small batches, every skein is unique.
