Spun in Switzerland from the finest quality Silk and Cashmere, this is a melt-in-your-hand soft yarn. The Swiss mill, from which this yarn originates, uses water turbines powered by nearby mountain streams - clean renewable electric power! They have been producing high-quality silk and silk-blend yarns for over 200 years. Read Clara Parkes' glowing review of this wonderful yarn in her Yarn Profile:
