New Shade of Merino Magic 8ply

Wow, were we excited about this one!

Natural Fleck is a bit of a departure from the rest of the Merino Magic range, which have so far all been solid shades.  They're terming this variation "Merino Fleck", even though it's still a part of the Merino Magic family.  To be honest, we didn't think much of it in the ball - but seeing it knitted up was an absolute revelation!  The subtle fleck throughout adds character to the finished piece, and would look great knitted up into a jumper, top, scarf or even a beanie.  Unfortunately our picture doesn't really do it justice, and even a sample card won't fully reflect the flecking throughout.  But if you're willing to take a leap of faith on this one, we're sure you won't be disappointed!
