Description

jaggerspun zephyr wool/silk 2/18wc

10,160 m/kg / 5,040 yds/lb

12 wpc / 32 wpi

25gms - 220m

100gms - 940m

The resultant count is 9 wc.

For the metric count system the resultant count would be 10nm.

A luxurious yarn made from 50% fine merino, 50% tussah silk.

Because wool and silk accept the dye slightly differently, the yarn has a softly tweedy or marled effect. Due to the silk component, it will shrink and full a little less than the Jaggerspun merino and so is very useful used with it for differential shrinkage effects. Generally, though, Jagger’s recommendation is for dry-cleaning not washing, they say;

“Due to the difficulties inherent in dyeing wool-silk, some shades may be less resistant to fading in light and water than 100% wool. For this reason, we recommend that wool-silk garments not be exposed to natural or artificial light for prolonged periods. They should be hand washed in cool water & lay flat to dry.  We cannot be held responsible for damages incurred as a result of any other cleaning or finishing methods. Weavers, please take note.”
