Aimee was inspired by her travel to Japan to bring an alternative fiber to her yarn line that gives you the feeling of wearing the lightness of clouds. It's a great yarn to hold together with Cashmerino (or a more rustic fingering-weight yarn) to create a lusciously soft fabric for your shawls and garments.
