Soft and wonderful to work with this thread is made of 100% Australian Merino Virgin Wool of the highest quality. I love it for wool applique but you can also use it for fine lace, crewel and crochet. Size 15, 20 yards. Hand dyed in small batches, each skein is unique. This wool thread is a hot pink - think hot pink geraniums or Gerbera daisies. This color is perfect for flowers, sunrises, highlighting lighter pinks - anywhere you need a bold touch of pink
