This yarn is basically silk pajamas for your needles. A blend of merino and silk, Scrumptious 4ply is softly spun, ridiculously soft, and shiny enough to make your other yarns jealous. Each 100g skein comes loaded with 365m/399yds—plenty to knit something fabulous and still have yarn left to pet creepily.
The silk gives you that “did I just knit with moonlight?” sheen, while merino keeps it squishy and cloud-soft. Bonus—it’s superwash, so you can toss it in the machine at 30° without tears (though let’s be honest, you’ll probably still hand-wash it like the precious baby it is).
Because it’s got a high silk content and a soft twist, stick with smaller needles (2.5–3.25mm/US 1.5–3). Go bigger and you risk pilling—and nobody wants their fancy lace to look like it’s sprouting fuzz balls.
