Approx. 155cm (61“) wingspan X 84cm (33“) deep.Opus is super lush. “Buttery” is the perfect adjective for this yarn, which masquerades as a fine, cool cashmere but is in fact a hardy blend of merino and baby alpaca. It’s technically a Fingering/4-Ply weight, but also knits up perfectly as a Sport weight since it’s so lofty.
