Zanziba Nubby, but long and strong. Shimmery with bright and shiny viscose, but subdued by the heathery way the rayon viscose takes on the dye. Good drape and body enough for a jacket, vest or poncho, yet soft and wearable since it’s mostly wool. Perfect to throw on casually‚ but fantastic with pearls or jewels. Crochet a choker out of Zanziba and wear it instead of pearls!
That’s why we love it. And you will to!

IMPORTANT NOTE: Just a reminder‚ this yarn‚ as all Colinette‚ is individually hand-painted. There are no dye lots and every skein is unique. Elise really likes the differences and when she uses the skeins‚ she places them arbitrarily. We do have a suggestion for people who are more organized. Roll up two skeins and every two rows change skeins as if you are striping with different colors. As a result‚ the differences in the colors will blend‚ and you will not be able tell where one stops and another starts.
