This really does live up to its name. Lush lace is a delicately soft light yarn, it is gorgeous. This yarn takes the dye well, and speckles are clear on this yarn although the colour tends to softly spread. With a great yardage this goes a long way and makes it a luxury but also value for money yarn. The resulting fabric when knitted is light as a feather, and feels almost cashmere like with a faint halo. It holds its shape really well and the stitch definition is soft. This would make exquisite light garments, scarfs, shawls, and accessories.
