Mitu is a delicate worsted yarn that combines the best of two worlds: the softness of alpaca and the resilience of wool. With half of each, you get a yarn that is both soft, warm and comfortable against the skin and garments that hold their shape. Mitu glides easily over the needles, feels soft in the hands and is very comfortable to knit with. The thickness of the yarn makes Mitu easy to knit and well suited for beginners, while the qualities of the yarn give both beginners and experienced knitters a nice and precise result. The stitches lay elegantly with a slightly fluffy surface, together with the thickness of the yarn this gives fullness, without the need for a guide thread. The fact that Mitu is a worsted yarn means that the fibers are combed before spinning. This gives a smoother, more even and more refined expression than carded yarn. The stitch image becomes clear and distinct, and structural patterns look good in this yarn. Worsted yarn also provides less air between the fibers, which contributes to a defined expression, a nice fall and a lovely weight to the garment. Mitu is simply a yarn that feels just as good on the needles as it does on the body – soft, bouncy and elegant. A yarn that you will enjoy, both while knitting and when the garment is put to use. 100 m / 50 g Knitting tension: 22-20 m = 10 cm Recommended needle size: 3.5-4
