Why You'll Love It

• Crisp Lace Definition: The single-ply construction ensures that yarnovers and decreases remain sharp and open, making it ideal for intricate lace shawls.
• The "Isager Glow": Spinni has a unique luster that catches the light differently than multi-ply yarns.
• Perfect for Mixing: While beautiful solo, it is famously held with Alpaca 1 to create a fabric that is both sturdy and soft.
• Heirloom Durability: This is a hard-wearing wool that resists pilling and maintains its beauty for decades.

The Details: A Traditional Foundation

Spinni is one of the oldest yarns in the Isager collection and remains a staple for serious knitters. Because it is a single-ply yarn, it has a slight tendency to "bias" (slant) if knit in the round solo; however, when held with another strand or knit flat, it produces a perfectly balanced, professional fabric. It is an "honest" wool with a bit of a bite that softens beautifully after a soak, revealing the heart of Danish knitting tradition.
