This kit contains all the yarn you need to create the fabulous Fair Isle sleeveless pullover, Munro, an early twentieth century sleeveless pullover from the Shetland Museum Archives, recreated by Susan for The Vintage Shetland Project. This stylish v-neck vest is knitted using [link: Excelana North =:= /collections/excelana-4-ply,n :link] a beautiful new blend of Excelana using wools from Northern England and the Scottish Borders and spun at a nearby Yorkshire mill, launched to celebrate our 10 years of supporting British wool here at SCV. This fingering (4 ply) weight yarn is soft to the touch but with just the right amount of stickiness for colourwork projects.
The kit contains five hand-dyed shades of Excelana; [link: Limestone =:= /products/limestone,n :link], [link: Charcoal =:= /products/excelana-charcoal,n :link], [link: Dark Mandarin =:= /products/dark-mandarin,n :link], [link: Sweet Chestnut =:= /products/sweet-chestnut,n :link] and [link: Powdered Egg =:= /products/powdered-egg,n :link], all hand dyed by Susan and her team.
