Magnolia
$16.00
Magnolia is a fingering-weight yarn made from modal with a touch of cashmere.
Modal, a biodegradable, sinfully soft, sturdy fiber provides Magnolia with a beautiful sheen and incredible drape. The cashmere content makes this yarn all the more lavish. Smooth construction lends itself to excellent stitch definition. It’s a joy to knit and crochet.
Use it for warm weather garments and accessories. It’s our new summer favorite!
