About the Yarn:

The two yarns used for these samples are slightly grabby, 100% wool yarns, but don’t let that be a restriction on your yarn choices. Fingering weights with a wool-heavy blend or primary fiber that will add structure are best--avoid anything with too much drape, stretch or slinkiness as it will sag out of shape. Seek something sturdy!
