Slubby

Sometimes you want a yarn with a whole lot of texture. If this is the quest that you are on then you need not look further.

Also called a "thick and thin yarn", Slubby has a hand spun look. The yarn width varies from a tightly-spun, mid-weight to a plush, lightly-spun, bulky sized yarn. Knitting or crocheting with this yarn will yield beautiful, organic results that are not possible with other yarns. Adding to the charm of this yarn is the gently cascading colour changes that come courtesy of the Fleece Artist - hand dyers extraordinaire from Nova Scotia.

Save this yarn for projects that need a little something extra. This yarn could turn into truly uniques garments from sweaters to accessories. It would also be a good choice for handmade goods for your home like blankets and cushion covers. Tapestry Weavers will find this yarn dreamy!
