Materials & Care Urth Yarns 16 Worsted is a solid, hand-dyed, extrafine superwash merino in rich and vibrant colors. Each skein is genuinely a work of art. Sweaters, shawls, socks, and more will be taken to a new level with the beauty of this yarn! Every skein of Urth Yarns plants a tree! In partnership with Trees for the Future, Urth Yarns is helping in its mission to provide families with the tools and knowledge to plant trees in Africa. Hand-dyed yarns have subtle variations that cause colors to vary from skein to skein. As this is a natural part of the process, please note there may be differences between the yarn images shown and the yarn received. To counteract this, we encourage all crafters to buy enough yarn for their entire project simultaneously.
