Apple Tree Knits Plush Fingering XL is a fingering-weight, 2-ply, 100% superwash Merino wool with a generous 1120 yards per 226 gram cake. Hand-dyed in New Jersey in gorgeous, gradient colorways that are simply stunning. YouÕve never felt a gradient yarn quite like this: soft and smooshy, with a delicious drapey hand, and richly-dyed colors. The 2-ply yarn is great for socks and shawls, and especially lends itself to lace projects. Each XL cake is a whopping 1120 yards--more than enough for a single large shawl, and can be pulled from either the inside or the cake or the outside.
