Yarn Blending - Sandnes Garn Sunday with Sandnes Garn Tynn Silk Mohair
Yarn blending, have you ever tried it? Or is it perhaps something completely new to you? Well, we are here to explain and share with you our own yarn blending matches with Sandnes Garn yarns. A little bit like a game of snap, but with two different textured yarns.
Yarn blending is when you use two strands (maybe sometimes more) of yarn held together and knitted as one yarn. It isn't a new concept, it is just something that we see cropping up in patterns more and more right now. It is having a bit of a moment. Very often it is a strand of mohair type yarn held with another fine yarn, giving a very luxurious feel to your garment.
PetiteKnit patterns quite often include yarn blending and we know it can be tricky to pair colours up online when flicking between two yarn pages. It can even be overwhelming when you are faced with all the yarns grouped together on the shelves in store. We are here to give you a helping hand and create a guide to yarn blending with Sandnes Garn Sunday and Sandnes Garn Tynn Silk Mohair.
A blog post to save for future reference when you reach for a PetiteKnit pattern such as the Monday sweater, Jenny Jacket, April Cardigan or Balloon sweater. All of these patterns suggest pairing Sunday with Tynn Silk Mohair, mimicking a DK weight yarn. Our shades of the Sandes Garn Sunday are all PetiteKnit colours. Shades chosen specifically for the PetiteKnit patterns by the designer.
