Misurina or Trelawny Top (Botah are Crop Tees) Yarn in Noir & Boutique, Merino Linen (fingering weight)

This is a suggested color combo for a two color garment, either the Misurina Tee by Caitlin Hunter or the Trelawny Top by Tamy Gore.  This listing is for 3 skeins; two of the first color listed (main color) and one of the second (contrasting color for colorwork).  To see all colors available in Merino Linen fingering weight go HERE.  

No patterns are included.  The price is equivalent to 3 skeins.

Depending upon size chosen you will need 2 to 4 skeins of the main color to knit the pattern's suggested length.  Please order any skeins need for your size in excess of the two skeins (788 yards) included here.  If you wish your top to be longer or knit looser than gauge, please order an extra skein (or more) of the main color.

For the contrast color, only one skein is suggested for all size ranges.

This yarn combines merino and linen in a SINGLE ply for exquisite drape and texture.  The linen varies in thickness and resists the dye, producing a linen "halo," perfect for transitional seasons (or every season here in Texas!). Expect some "white" areas - a tweedy effect, that's the linen, which resists the dye.
