These sturdy, stable bastions of culture and learning are ideal to represent this sock weight yarn which has wonderful strength and character.

Fingering/sock Weight

• Each skein weighs 100g and is 190 meters
• Approximately 4 stitches per inch on 5mm needles

• Machine wash cold, dry flat

Gytha Worsted is a specially designed base for Third Vault Yarns. With the incredible softness of Falklands Merino Wool hand sourced by Wool Tops and is treated and spun by John Arbon in Devon. This yarn has a great ability to take colour, with great wearing qualities making it the perfect yarn for something next to the skin soft or to wrap you up in warmth as a jumper, it’s almost magical.

• There may be some variation from skein to skein, even within the same dyelot. For best results, alternate skeins every few rows in projects using several skeins.
• This skein is machine washable, though to preserve colour and texture in your garments, gentle hand washing is recommended.
• All skeins undergo a 4-5 step washing process but some colours are prone to a small amount of bleeding in their first or second wash, due to this we recommend washing in cold water with a gentle detergent or wool wash
