Un fil abordable

J'aime beaucoup travailler avec la Kid silk pour des projets qui demandent de la tricoter avec un brin de mérino. J'aime aussi le vaste choix de couleurs offert : on peut facilement créer de superbes associations de nuances. C'est un fil abordable un peu moins doux que le mohair de certaines autres marques, mais qui vaut la peine.

Une laine si douce et légère parfaite avec un autre fil pour donner un effet duveteux
