Description
Six Strands of Mule Spun fibre, the Mule Spinner 6-Ply Rug Yarn is made from a blend of long wools, coarse alpaca, coarse mohair, and 10% nylon to make an incredibly strong yarn. It is perfect for weaving heavy rugs or crochetting/knitting the classic simple slippers familiar to farm houses and christmas craft fairs across the prairies.
It is available in a selection of natural sheep shade colours and dyed in the skein jewel tones. Price is per 4oz skein.
There are approximately 64 m or 70 yd per 112 gms / 4 oz skein. For knitting, we recommend 5.5mm to 8.0mm needles.
This is a Bulky weight yarn according to the Craft Yarn Council's Yarn Standard. You can find their simple guide to yarn weights here.
Please note: these are hand dyed skeins and there is colour change throughout each one.
100% Canadian animal fibre processed at Custom Woolen Mills, Alberta, Canada.
