Princess is a clever blend of several fibers that includes a bit of cashmere and angora. The strength and durability that the yarn’s round, multi-ply construction brings, makes it great for accessories that will get a lot of use. But the cashmere and angora content takes the crisp edge off the yarn—it has a soft halo and gentle drape that develops as you knit with it. Princess positively blossoms after its first hand wash or wet block.
