Zephyr Wool-Silk in a Five-Skein Bundle, Carried Forward as Zephira
This is the same beloved 2/18 wool-silk lace yarn, packaged as five matching 50g skeins instead of a single cone. It's ideal when you want the Zephyr hand without winding off a full pound. After Jagger Spun's Zephyr was discontinued, makers asked us to keep it alive, so we created Zephira, our in-house continuation of the same trusted specs.
Each bundle gives you 2,800 total yards across five duplicate-color skeins. That's enough for a full lace shawl or a generous weaving warp, with the convenience of skein-sized portions for dyeing, sampling, or sharing.
The blend of 50% fine Merino wool and 50% Tussah silk is what makers love here: lightweight and next-to-skin soft, with the quiet, treasured glow that silk lends. Jagger Spun has milled in Maine since 1898, so this yarn carries more than a century of American spinning craft.
