Beartooth High Twist
Smooth stitches, beautiful definition, and softness you’ll want next to your skin. Beartooth High Twist pairs Laneras’s signature 4-ply construction with a high-twist spin for added strength and a smooth finish.
Let textured socks show off that stitch definition, explore contrasting colors in a shawl, or choose it for a lightweight sweater. This fingering-weight yarn brings the character of Polwarth wool without added synthetic fibers.

Customer Reviews
Just started a colorwork yoke and am loving it!
I just got my yarn and can't wait to put it on needles and make some new socks! I love the gorgeous red!
While I have yet to cast on, I have to say I gasped when I opened up my package of yarn…the colors are so striking! I am also intrigued with the twist in this yarn. I am planning to knit the Nila top this year. It will be gorgeous!
