Berroco Providence is a lightweight, tweedy yarn, with year-round appeal. Merino, baby alpaca, and silk join forces to create a DK-weight yarn that shines in simple and textured stitches alike.
Colors are named for points (and people) or interest to Providence, Rhode Island, which was an important textile manufacturer in the nineteenth century.
