    This kit contains all the hand-dyed yarn you need to knit the elegant Orchidaceae sweater .

    Orchidaceae is a stunning DK weight sweater knitted in the round with a beautful lacy yoke. The pattern includes instructions for sizes from 28-62 inches (71-157cm) and both written and charted instructions for the lace yoke. Orchidaceae is knitted using Excelana DK, a double-knit weight 100% British wool yarn, worsted spun with a soft handle. Despite its softness, Excelana is a sturdy yarn that doesn't pill easily. Made from 100% British wool, grown, sheared, spun and finished in the UK and hand-dyed in house by Susan and her daughter, Charlie at their dye studio,"A Room Of My Own".

    The shade shown in the photographs is Cinnamon.

    These kits can be put together in any of the beautiful hand-dyed colours of Excelana North DK. You can see all the shades here. Simply choose which beautiful shade you would like to knit your Orchidaceae in and the size you require and remember to add your PDF pattern if required before checking out.
