Granite from Nashua Handknit

 

 

A tweedy wool and acrylic blend that knits to chunky weight. The subtle colour variances in this yarn reminds us of the colour of the rockface as we drive the Sea to Sky Highway (in BC). A lovely yarn for sweaters, vests and other cool weather knits. The 50 g skein has 75 meters and reteils for Can $9.95. See the Granite sweater below, which you can see in our store. It's a Raglan Cardigan with Tie and the book is available in the store or in our web site.
