Lascaux DK by Ancient Arts Yarns
Lascaux DK is the perfect sweater yarn! It knits like a dream and feels wonderful against the skin! Lascaux is a delightful blend of Old World and New World sheep fibre. Manx Loaghtan is a heritage breed sheep found only on the Isle of Mann, and the modern breed is the Punta Arenas from South America. The natural colour of this yarn is a light brown, so it has a heathered undertone when it is dyed, and although it looks rustic, it actually knits up exceptionally soft!
