This is shade #16 from the Filatura di Crosa Superior range. It is jet black.Superior is 70% Cashmere and 30% Schappe Silk and is hand wash. There are 330 yards per 25g ball. It knits on US #4 needles at 6 stitches to the inch or on finer needles for lace. This is an expensive yarn but a little goes a long way. One ball will make a lacey scarf and 3 balls will make a sweater.

Thank you Janette for the best service ever. Nothing was too much trouble despite my numerous emails and questions. I look forward to buying many more products from you in the future. I haven't started the project using this wool yet but know it is magnificent as my two friends have knitted a shawl in it.
I have used this yarn before to knit an intarsia sweater dress (quadrupled - four strands together for a thicker knit). This yarn is soft and strong, especially good for anyone with sensitive skin. The color is as shown here.
