New yarn bases

I’ve been thinking about introducing heavier weight base yarns to the shop for a some time now. I finally found these two beauties!
Nove vlnky do obchodu, take hrubsie (konecne).

45%cashmere/55%silk, 11wpi, about 200m per 100g, $30
45%kasmir/55%hodvab, okolo 200m na 100g, $30


50%merino/50%silk, 11wpi, about 200m per 100g, $20
50%merino/50%hodvab, okolo 200m na 100g, $20


both types have the same construction, four 2ply strands twisted together, which I found very interesting (I believe this is called cabled yarn).
obe vlnky maju rovnaku konstrukciu, styri dvojvrstvove tenke vlnky stocene do jednej hrubej.

Yay! Worsted weight at last! (and silk/wool at that)

I absolutely can't wait for you to dye up some of this.
