Island Wools

Whimsical Colors San Juan Summer

San Juan Summer is the perfect yarn for all your spring, summer, and early fall knits!  San Juan Summer is super soft and breathable, making it perfect for summer tops and lightweight sweaters.  The wool takes the dye, but the cotton does not, leading to more muted colors than our 100% wool yarns
