Taking its name from the phrase "tener buena pinta", or "to look good", Pinta Hand-Dyed is a beautiful blend of merino wool, silk, and ramie (fiber from the ramie plant, part of the nettle family). Dyed by hand for pretty, tonal washes of color, Pinta Hand-Dyed has more than good looks; it has a soft, silky touch, too! This fingering-weight yarn combines the temperature regulation of wool, the smooth softness of silk, and the light strength of ramie, making it ideal for year-'round wear.
