Garnet in Mirasol Usun is a rich, cabin-like wool red. I like it with the 112 Agate.
Usun is the Quechuan word for "cultivated land rich with organic materials" Mirasol knocks in out of the park again with this super soft yarn So soft that my go to favorite needles, the addi Rockets, are too slick for this yarn I switched to ChiaoGoo Red Premiums, which are still metal, but with a finish that really hangs onto those super soft yarns.
Usuan is 92% cotton and 8% Polyamide It is a product of Italy.
It says to use a US 5-7 needle (3.75-4.50mm) I tested on my 5 needle, but could easily go down to a 4 needle Mirasol calls this a DK [ 3 ] weight, but personally I feel it works up better on a 4 If you are doing shawls and wraps 5 or 6 is fine But if you would do a baby receiving blanket, I think a 4 would do better.
Adorable for fall cowls Pair with fall shades of gold and orange-red. Ideal color for the hunter in your family With no wool, this would be perfect for those with wool allergies Think hats, scarves, mittens and even a little vest or jacket for the summer nights.
