Susurro is 50% Mulberry silk, 25% Merino, and 25% Linen wound as a single ply into a DK/Sport weight. The fusion of these 3 very different fibers results in an amazing depth of color, giving the yarn an almost metallic sheen.This yarn has a marvelous balance due to the sharp contrast between the crude texture of the linen and the silkiness of the Merino. – Malabrigo
