Sherkin Hat and Mitts Yarn Kit

Deas is an aran weight Irish yarn made from 86% Merino Wool, and 14% Mohair woollen spun yarn with a hint of a halo when blocked. The mohair content creates a warm fabric that is deceptively light to wear.

Kit contains yarn for both patterns and a project bag only. Pattern is NOT included in the yarn kit.
