Largo DK: Alpaca, Linen, Silk Yarn | Hand-Dyed Skeins | KittyBea by the Sea

KittyBea, by the Sea is a new Collection of coastal inspired colorways. Inspiration is taken from scenic beaches, coastal landmarks, and local wildlife- including gorgeous shells found whilst beachcombing. The first location of inspiration is (naturally): Florida!

Largo DK is one of our absolute favorites. This unique blend provides a bit of warmth and a lot of beautiful drape. It has a lovely sheen from the Silk and Linen, makes gorgeous shawls, and even prettier garments. Largo DK is lightweight, perfect for our coastal climate, and a three-season yarn everywhere else.

Largo DK is featured in our new pattern, Potter Poncho, shown in By the Sea colorway: Spanish Point.
