Opal Schafpate 16 4ply

The yarn is named after the sheep of the flock, with subtle and complex colour changes that create beautiful, one-of-a-kind patterns as you knit. With Opal pre-patterned yarn, there’s no need to manage multiple strands or follow complicated charts — just knit and enjoy the magic of the design unfolding.
