1.2 ounces/74 yards $12
3 ounces/177 yards $30

Jackson Cashmere Handspun Yarn
It had to happen...I was inspired by my own sprinklings on the beige wall of my studio. What could I do, but listen. This is Jackson, which is the most magnificent superfine cashmere -- handspun and hand dyed. It has a warm cream background and shots of teal, periwinkle, bronze and salmon and will create a fabric with the look of Pointillism. It looks beautiful with EVERYTHING and it FEELS like the Emperor's New Clothes. I have 1309 yards/ 24.8 ounces left of this handspun, hand dyed yarn.

Fiber: 100% Superfine cashmere handspun yarn
Gauge: 4-5 stitches per inch suggested
Needle size 7 to 9 US
Hand wash
Each skein is individual in weight and yardage.
Price: $24 per ounce.
