Lemongrass in Venice

Although native to India, lemongrass is widely being infused into the culinary imaginations of Italian chefs, as well as their gardens. With its thin arching stalks that sport soft lemon yellow and green hues, the lemongrass plant creates a perfect visual contrast in many herb gardens. Knit up your own herb garden with this yarn!

Still soft and squishy, Venice can fool you at first. The twist is the tightest of all our sock yarns and appears to have some curly cues when you first look at it. Made from Merino wool, which is often regarded as the most luxurious and refined wool available, we assure you it will be love at first knit stitch. It has a wonderful touch in your hands and soon creates a fabric that says strength, but is not stiff. For patterns that require more stability than our Lucca yarn, yet does not give the appearance of bulk, Venice will give you lots of options to explore.
