Named for the messengers who criss-crossed the vast Andean empire of the Incas on foot, this fingering weight yarn from Amano is a unique blend of superwash merino, cotton and linen. Its high-twist 4-ply structure makes it durable and elastic enough for socks, but also provides great stitch definition for lace patterns and lightweight garments.
