Louet Gems Fingering hanks are handpainted by Cherry Tree Hill in regular Cherry Tree Hill colorways.  As this yarn represents a partnership between two well known yarn companies, it carries both the Louet and Cherry Tree Hill logos.  Louet Gems is a distinct sock yarn that differs from Supersock, as it is slightly thicker with fewer yards per pound and a little more bounce.  Mix and match with regular Louet Gems solids for fairisle socks, intarsia and stranded designs. 

Specifications: Recommended US needle size is 2-3 and gauge is 6.5-7.5 sts per inch. Although this yarn is machine washable not every washing machine is the same, so for best results handwash.

Please note: Colors may not be exactly as shown, we do our best to maintain consistency but dye lots may vary. Also, please be aware colors may look different depending on the type of computer screen you are using. Be aware, blue exhaust is common in the colorways of Country Garden and Life's A Beach because the turquoise molecule is larger than the fiber molecule.
