Caracol - Frank OchreA truly unique yarn! We start with a bulky thick and thin single made of our delightfully soft superwash merino wool, and then we criss cross it with a binder thread (either black or white.) Then the yarn is dyed one of our signature kettle dyed colorways, and: poof! Something unlike any yarn we've made before, inspired by a particular style of hand spun yarn. Caracol knits up into a cozy, fluffy fabric with a ton of texture and visual interest.
