Lascaux Fine 100 by Ancient Arts Yarns
Lascaux Fine 100 by Ancient Arts Yarns
Lascaux Fine is a perfect combination of Old and New World wools, incorporating the bounce, spring, and cushiness of Manx Loaghtan Wool (old breed sheep) and the drape and lustre of Punta Arenas (modern breed). Lascaux Fine is perfect for all garments including sweaters, shawls and accessories (although we don’t recommend it for socks) and is ideal for colour work and lace thanks to its structure. This yarn keeps you warm and cozy, while still feeling great against your skin!
Also available in 50 gram skeins as Lascaux Fine 50’s!
