    Towpath – Nene DK 100g

    GBP £19.90
    Another canal-inspired colourway; the towpath is the path travels alongside the cutting.

Although quite highly variegated, the colours are light and will allow textured patterns to shine through while lending visual interest to simple ones. The gentle colours blend beautifully in the finished project.
