Odd Stripes KIT
We love how this pattern shows off the marl of this Plied Yarn.
We know that it can be hard to choose contrasting colors online, so we've put together a few of our favorite combinations. Of course, any two skeins will work. Click here if you want to put together your own.
Kit includes:
Two contrasting skeins of Plied Penn Ave
Penn Ave is made from two strands of hand-dyed yarn. Both Penn Ave and North Ave (the original Plied yarn) have the same unique Plied characteristics. Penn Ave is simply made with a thicker single-ply.
