Why were we happy to see it? Well, two reasons ....

.... first reason ....

.... this is Adriafil Knitcol. A gloriously multi-coloured wool yarn.

It has 125m in a 50g ball. The recommended needle size is 4.5mm with a tension of 16 stitches and 22 rows to 10cm.

It is 100% wool and machine-washable.

It costs £3.55 for 50g.

The second reason is ....

Yuppy

.... and this is Adriafil Yuppy. A lovely muted colours range of sock yarn.

It has 225m in a 50g ball. The recommended needle size is 2.5mm with a tension of 29 stitches and 43 rows to 10cm.

It is a mix of 70% wool and 30% acrylic and is machine-washable.
