When Adrienne Vittadini Maria yarn, merino with Lycra, was discontinued and available at a reduced wholesale price, I bought several bags. Approximately 40 50gm balls remain in my inventory.
I used only one 50 gram ball for the wrist warmers shown in brown. They are wonderfully light weight and stretch to fit your hand comfortably.
Available colors:
Forest Green
Midnight Blue
Brown
