"Indian Summer" is one of my super textured handspun art yarns. It's gorgeous with lots of little details that you'll discover when you explore this skein. I spent a lot of time preparing all those lovely add-ins and spinning them into the yarn, which is why this particular skein is pretty expensive ...but also completely unique ❤

178g ~ 37m ~ soft ~ super textured ~ please handwash (will felt)

In this yarn you'll find small satin flowers, crepe and tiny frosted beads, red yarn add-ins, silk coccon caps (caps that are cut off the silk cocoons to remove the moths), satin ribbon, sparkly sequins ribbon, pompom trim, cultivated freshwater beads, sari silk shreds, silk throwster's waste and lots of 1st and 2rd/3rd clip BFL, Teeswater & Wensleydale locks.

I created some supercute pigtails/roots adorned by beads and silk cocoon caps (next to last pic) - aren't those to-die-for?

"Indian Summer" is just as colorful and intense as it comes across in the pics. It's n-plied (3-plied) around a core yarn which makes for a few slightly twisty spots, especially close to the "special effects".

Contains: 78% wool, 9% silk, 5% viscose, 5% cotton, 2% nylon, < 1% acrylic. May contain traces of other fibers.

Wool & silk fibers including the locks were handdyed by me.
