DHG
Vintage by DHG offers a lush blend of alpaca and Merino wool carefully blown into a soft cotton core. The result is an elegant and luxurious yarn with a delightful fluffy character.
With its chainette construction the yarn is incredibly light in hand, while the bulky gauge ensures you’ll have projects completed in a jiff.
Best suited to hand-knit fabrics, Vintage will impart an enduring aesthetic for timeless wardrobe pieces.
