Product Details

Step into spring in the Andes with Amano Chaski, a beautiful blend of superwash merino wool, pima cotton, and linen. ‘Chaski’ were very important messengers in Inca society; they would often run hundreds of miles on the vast Incan empire. Amano honours their legacy with their first sock weight yarn.

This blend has been specially developed using the softest pima cotton, which is springy and structured, mixed with superwash merino wool. Easy knit and easy care, meaning it can be washed in the machine over and over without losing its softness. Perfect for all your lace knit creations and developed in twelve spring shades.

This product is carried at our 658 Queen West location.

This product needs to be wound into a cake or ball prior to working.

Suggested Care
