New Merino/Silk Fingering!
I just received my latest order with the new 85/15 19.5 micro Merino/mulberry silk fingering! In the top picture you can see the difference in yarn thickness. I’d guess the fingering on the left is about twice as thick as the Primo Lace on the right.
eta: it is shown on the supplier’s page as 2 ply, 2232 yds/lb, 2.3 lb cone, so I will put it up at 560 yards per skein.
And in these two pictures you can see that the fingering, just over 2 pounds, comes on cones smaller than the Primo Lace, which is about 4 pounds! The pint of Budweiser is there only for size comparison. (Note, the Bud is still closed! Hahaha) (for now!)
So Ray – how many yds./mtrs. on each cone?
each cone varies slightly. It is shown on the supplier’s page as:
2 ply, 2232 yds/lb
2.3 lb cone
