Neighborhood Fiber SUPERWASH Rustic Fingering Kits

These kits are made up of 4 skeins each (1900 yards total) of Neighborhood Fiber's previous superwash merino Rustic Fingering base (their new base is organic merino). Each set of 4 skeins comes in a light organza bag. Kits are made up of gradients, semi-gradients, complimentary colors, or 4 of the same color. You can do a one larger project out of all 4 or several smaller projects. At $81/kit these are a nice deal. Individual skeins of the old Rustic Fingering were at $27/each. The new organic Rustic Fingering (which you can find online at Neighborhood FiberCo or in our brick & mortar store in Asheville) are $32/skein with the same 475 yards per skein. See below for recommended patterns/projects.

Rustic Fingering is a soft and smooth, single-ply fingering-weight superwash merino yarn with enough yardage for many shawlette and accessory patterns. Single ply construction gives amazing stitch definition. Not recommended for socks.

Most colorways are named for neighborhoods in WashingtonDC and Baltimore. Montford colorway is exclusive to our store and is named for a neighborhood of Asheville, NC. Some colorways are named for artists including Banksy, Basquiat, Shepard Fairey, Stephen Towns, and Amy Sherald.
