Briggs & Little Tuffy 2 Ply is a medium weight yarn made with 80% wool and 20% nylon blend yarns. It is especially good for knitting socks and can also be used for gloves, mittens, vests, scarves or hats, and is also a good weaving yarn. You can also use patterns that call for the Heritage 2 ply yarn.
Durasport is made of the same content, but is a 1 ply yarn. This yarn is great knitting vests, sweaters, socks, mittens, gloves, and hats. It is also good for weaving blankets or coating fabric.
Both of these yarns come in 4 ounce skeins.
