Civility Sport

By Elemental Affects

From Jeane deCoster, whose yarns are famously special and rare. This exquisite blend of 70% U.S.-grown merino and 30% imported mulberry silk is luxurious to the touch and surprisingly strong. The low luster of the silk makes this yarn so very beautiful. We hope you’ll try it—it’s definitely unlike any yarn we’ve seen. The 400 yards per skein will quickly get you to a sweater.

We love Civility Sport for Isabell Kraemer’s Petula Pullover featured in Field Guide No. 10: Downtown. It’s pictured here knit up in Pearl Grey with Serge for the yoke motif.

Civility Sport is gorgeous for shawls and accessories too. One skein makes a shawlette version of Grethe Mensen’s Dunas pictured in the gallery here. See even more of Ann’s pattern recommendations here.

Happy, lustrous knitting!
