Isager Soft Fine
Isager Soft is an 3-ply/light-fingering weight yarn which consists of 63% alpaca, 26% silk, and 11% yak.
Isager Soft Fine has a core of silk on which a strand of alpaca and yak is added as a loopy bouclé, which is then finally brushed to make a fluffy yarn. Even if the production and the fibres are different to Isager Soft, we find quite a similarity in the textures of the two yarns. Isager Soft Fine contains wool from yaks and the depth of the colours derives from the dark colour of the yak wool, – exactly as we know from the S-colours of white and black wool. Its softness compares to Silk Mohair, knitting with this yarn, however, is a completely different experience, especially when knitting with one strand only. The yarn is unbelievable soft and our inhouse-name for this yarn is ‘Isager’s cashmere’.
Things to Note:
- Each skein of Soft Fine contains 25 g of yarn and has a length of approximately 150 m.
- The recommended needle sizes are 3.5-4.5 mm.
- The knit tension is 21 stitches and 32 rows per 10 cm when using a 3.5 mm needle.
