JaggerSpun Super Lamb 4/8 DK Weight Superwash 100% Fine Grade Merino Yarn
We are proud to offer Super Lamb in the newest 4/8 DK Weight. This is a 100% fine grade Merino Lambswool made from Superwash treated Merino Lambswool which has been shrink treated. This yarn offers the best of both worlds — the special qualities of worsted spun wool combined with the convenience of being able to machine wash and dry without fading or shrinking.
The Super Lamb 4/8 DK line comes in a very versatile variety of solid colors. And the new 4/8 DK weight satisfies those who want to create garments and gifts more quickly while yielding an elegant and professional finish. Garments made from this line retain their softness, resilience, and durability after countless machine washings and dryings. Sock knitters will love this yarn!
Here's a useful fact that you might want to consider: it takes on average about one (1) cone of yarn to make a sweater. Compare the cost-effectiveness of working straight from cones for your projects. You will avoid dealing with "joins" and your work will be faster and more fluid.

Meet A Variety Of Pattern Gauges

Super Lamb has these characteristics, thus offering knitters an incredible amount of versatility when knitting using 2, 3, or more plies together straight out of the balls or cones purchased. Knit or crochet combining different color plies to obtain special effects. Combine using yarns from our other lines for trims and many other special effects.
Use for knitting, machine knitting, lace work, weaving, crochet, dying … the creative possibilities are endless. The versatility, durability and cost-effectiveness of the resulting garments is unsurpassed.
