Diadrey Yarn from Japan

Every once in a while, you come across a yarn that is absolutely breathtaking. Diadrey, by Diakeito, imported by Dancing Fibers, is one of those. Its color ways rival those of Noro, yet it has a much softer hand.

Comprised of 54% mohair, 38% wool, 8% nylon, it yields 16-18 stitches per inch on a US #7 needle. It is $14.50 for 91 yards.

The photograph depicts one skein knit in the free Multidirectional Diagonal Scarf pattern. (or Google it!) Notice the saturation of color and the boucle texture which give way to a smooth worsted weight and then back again. Class available 29 October 2006.
