item #: A-148 1/17.6 wool stainless steel content: 75% wool, 25% stainless stteel yardage: approx. 547 yds. (492 mts.)/oz. (28 gm.) weight: lace/weaving unit size: from 1/2 oz. suggested epi for weaving: 20-30 suggested needle size for knitting: US no. 2-3 for single strand, no. 10 & up for 2 strands ad more suggested needle size for crochet: N/A Like silk stainless steel yarn (A-20 & 21), the core is stainless steel and wool is wrapped around the core. Because of the stainless steel, there is a memory in the yarn. You can create something. Twist it around! It will stay in that shape unless you straighten it out. It is easiest if you knit this yarn in 2 strands, however a lace stitch in a single strand is beautiful. If you work in 2 strands, you will be a variegation in the fabric. Works fine as a warp yarn for weavers, but it is a bit tricky, so if you are just starting to use this yarn, go as a weft yarn first.
