Waning

Description: Light and lofty 2-ply DK yarn. Great for cardigans, vests, mittens, and hats. Hardier folks will find it comfortable for scarves and pullovers, but the sensitive among us will prefer it for second layers or less sensitive skin. This naturally dark gray yarn is the fraternal twin to “Waxing,” and its dyed colors are moodier with depth and heathering. Though the yardage on Waning is slightly higher, gauge differences are negligible, and they play together beautifully for stripes and colorwork.
