Madelinetosh Tosh Merino Light Yarn – Hand-Dyed Superwash Merino Fingering Weight Yarn
Meet the yarn that knitters can't stop talking about. Tosh Merino Light is a luxuriously soft, single-ply fingering weight yarn, hand-dyed in small batches right here in the USA. Each hank soaks up color in a way that's hard to replicate — saturated, glowing, and just a little bit moody, with the kind of depth that only comes from true hand-dyeing.
Spun from 100% superwash merino wool, this hand-dyed fingering weight yarn has a gorgeous drape that makes it perfect for knitting shawls, delicate shoulder wraps, and lightweight sweaters, while still holding up beautifully for hand-dyed sock yarn projects and accessories. The single-ply yarn construction lets stitch definition shine, so your lace patterns and cables really pop.

A note on hand-dyed yarn: because every hank is dyed by hand, slight variations in color are normal from skein to skein. We recommend purchasing enough merino wool yarn to complete your entire project at once, and alternating between hanks every couple of rows for the most even, blended look.
One hank is plenty for a pair of hand-knit socks; grab two for a generous lace shawl. However you use it, this luxury fingering weight wool yarn turns any knitting or crochet project into something special.
