Yakity Yak Semi-Solid Fingering by Greenwood Fiberworks
Yakity Yak is our most popular yarn and for good reason. The subtle silvery undertone creates a unique and beautiful depth of color. Yakity Yak also has a firm twist with a nice drape which makes it perfect for socks, shawls, mitts, and even sweaters. Best of all, it is very, very soft. You will love it, too!
Our semi-solid colors are kettle-dyed in small batches. This hand-dye process creates a yarn with a slight color variation throughout the skein which gives great visual interest to your project.
We recommend hand washing in warm water and laying flat to dry to ensure the best care for your project.
