This luxuriously soft yarn is a pure pleasure to knit with. Cashmere gives a super smooth quality to this yarn and allows it to glide effortlessly on your needles (or hook)! There's no way to be disappointed with this yarn, if you're looking for softness, smoothness and a little bounce. This yarn is perfect for special garments and accessories alike. Siesta DK was previously called, Bird.
