Plum - Katahdin 437

Juicy shades of deep reddish purple. Plum is a warmer purple than Tulipa. Katahdin 437 A lighter fingering weight than our Yummy 2-Ply, Katahdin 437 (formerly known as Northumbria Fingering - it is exactly the same yarn) is spun from the long, lustrous wool of Bluefaced Leicester sheep. BFL is a perfect canvas for Babs’ colors, giving the yarn a rich depth and slightly glossy finish. It's great for durable, fine-gauge socks, and lovely in crisp lacy shawlettes.  Size: 437 yd / 3.5 oz (400m / 100g) skeins Content: 100% superwash Bluefaced Leicester wool Gauge: Fingering weight. 8-10 stitches per inch on US 0-2.
