Milburn DK

This gorgeous yarn is so light to wear, yet lovely and warm and hardwearing, with gorgeous, rich depth of colour and a beautiful sheen from the silk. It's great for a wide range of projects, and being machine washable on a delicate wash makes it a bit more practical. 

Made from 85% British Bluefaced Leicester and 15% Mulberry Silk.

We recommend that if you are planning to use a dark colour with a pale colour to make a swatch with them both and wash it to make sure no colour contamination occurs before starting your project. Hot water in particular can make colours run; if in doubt use cool water and no soap/detergent.
