[Islandwools] Introducing: Yak Bliss

[Julie Packard]

Yak Bliss is the newest yarn for Whimsical Colors.  It is a dreamy blend of 65% superwash merino, 15% yak, and 20% silk in a DK weight yarn and retails for $32 a 100g skein (231yds) The base color is a beautiful heathered grey that takes dye beautifully turning into warm and fabulous colors.  The yarn drapes beautifully and is excellent at showing stitch definition.  And the softness?  Ooh la la!

Here, using Black Forest and Natural Grey, Julie has knit up Copenhagen Calling <http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/copenhagen-calling>, a wonderfully snuggly cowl:


For this cowl, I used 1 skein of Black Forest and 2 skeins of Natural Grey.  With the leftovers of the grey, 
I made a pair of my Zig Zag Fingerless Mitts <http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/zig-zag-mitts-2>:
