Madelinetosh Farm Twist DK is made up of two strands (plys) of our favourite Tosh Merino Light twisted together to form a heavy 8ply / DK - light worsted weight yarn. Farm Twist DK has the same amazing sheen and colour intensity as Tosh Merino Light with a slightly more rustic appearance (it's still super soft and squishy though!). It works up beautifully into a luxurious fabric making it the perfect option for scarves, shawls and garments.
Each incredibly soft skein is hand-dyed in small dye lots and there is the usual absolutely gorgeous range of MadTosh colours!

- Deb is wearing the Cozy Winter shawl by Melanie Mielinger in Copper Pink. She used three skeins and kept knitting until they were all used up.

Please note: Dyed by hand in small batches, Madelinetosh yarns do not come in dye lots. The beauty of hand-dyed yarns is that each hank is a unique work of art, so please be aware that there can be a variation in colouring, hue and saturation, even within the same dye batch. We suggest using two skeins and alternating rows to ensure there is no obvious line when you change skeins.
Wonderful product and service
By: Chris on 6 August 2021Some years ago, when visiting New York, I bought a skein of MadTosh Joshua Tree to put in my stash. Then recently I desperately needed more when working on a project and did not think I’d have any luck purchasing in Australia. Not only did I find it at Skein Sisters but in doing so I found a fantastic wool shop! I love watching the many informative video clips on Instagram and have picked up great ideas. Thank you very much.
