I am very lucky to be in possession of some very luxurious fibres so what better than to spin them and ply them all together!!!!
Being this close to Christmas I will put it on Etsy. The three plys are Yak, Cashmere and Baby Camel and Silk. It's just gorgeous!!! There is 251 metres or 274 yards of yarn, weighs 110g or 3.88 oz, 18 wraps per inch. In Australia terms that is about a 4-5 ply type yarn.

Tah Dah.....done!!
It is very soft and there are no breaks in it at all, unlike store bought.
Not to mention, there is no wool like it anywhere.
