This yarn is basically merino in a silk dress—soft, elegant, and just a little extra. 💁♀️ The silky strand drinks up dye like it’s happy hour, giving your stitches a subtle glow-up. Slightly thick and thin (like most of us after the holidays), it knits into fabric so gorgeous you’ll want to pet it more than your cat.

Because silk takes dye differently than wool, each skein has gentle highlights that dance through your stitches—like sunlight filtering through Spanish moss. The result? Subtle dimension, rich color, and a fabric that feels as good as it looks.

Yarn Care: Most of Wonderland's yarns are superwash wool, which means they’re designed for easier care — no felting surprises here! 

• Washing: Hand-wash gently in cool water. You can also use the delicate cycle in your machine if it’s truly gentle.
• Soap: They recommend a small amount of mild shampoo or your favorite wool wash. A touch of hair conditioner works beautifully to keep fibers soft and silky.
• Rinsing: Rinse in cool water, being careful not to agitate.
• Drying: Press out excess water with a towel (no wringing or twisting). Lay flat to dry, reshaping your project as needed.

Tip: Treat your handmade pieces with the same care you’d give a favorite wool sweater or scarf — a little gentleness goes a long way!
