This is a Batt in a Braid: this series is a set of custom-designed blends made to be as complex as batts, but in "braid" form - hence the name :-)
It's easier to remember by number than by a whole string of ingredients ...
This is Batt in a Braid #35
40% Sw Merino (18.5 mic) / 40% Merino (18.5 Mic) / 20% Tussah Silk
We find this much softer than the readily available blend with similar components.
This is the colorway based on the response we received from Elizabeth's daughter when we asked her about her Mom's favorite color:
"“My mother loved Loden green (the color of German Loden cloth; a deep green, but not too blue or too yellow) and rust - not too red and not too orange. Add those to any natural, undyed sheep colors, ranging from off-white, through greys, browns and blacksheep. Knit on… Meg”
I take great care to make sure that dye is sufficiently exhausted and heat set the fibers so there is minimal to no run-off. However, due to differences in water across the globe, what runs clear for me may bleed a little for you.
Please take care to hand wash your finished item in cool water and lay flat to dry. I also make every attempt possible to use a photograph that is as true as possible to the real color. Monitor settings may vary.
