Moonshine is a cozy, soft, silky blend of alpaca, wool & silk. The single-ply, worsted weight yarn has a nice, round strand that knits into beautiful stockinette, cables & textured stitches.
The fun, hand dyed colorways create a beautiful effect as you knit or crochet. Knit alone for all-over patterning or pair with a Moonshine solid for a creative take on stripes, mosaic or stranded colorwork. Moonshine is wonderful for hats, cowls, scarves & wraps.

A word about colours and knitting styles
- Note that colours can and do look different on different computers, mobile phones, TV and in your favourite crafting magazine as well as in person.
- We recommend you consider the purchase of an extra ball or two just to be on the safe side in case you need more towards the end of your project and have misplaced the receipt and/or other identifying material.
- All knitters are different and some have different tension than others. Please keep this in mind when ordering. You might need an extra ball or two.
