Rare in a worsted spun yarn, Imbue Sport’s heathered colorways are blended from an assortment of fleece-dyed solid colors, creating richly complex shades that harmonize beautifully in colorwork and stripes.
In a versatile sport weight that knits beautifully at a wide range of gauges, Imbue Sport is an ideal choice for lightweight sweaters and accessories.

FIBER CHARACTERISTICS
The wool for Imbue Sport comes from Merino sheep raised in Utah and Nevada. An ancient breed hailing back to 12th century Spain, the “King of Sheep" is renowned for supremely soft and dense finewool fleeces with lively spring, velvety luster, and superb vibrance of color when dyed. Ideal for lightweight sweaters and accessories, Imbue Sport’s worsted spun 3-ply construction brings smoothness and durability to this wonderfully soft wool.
