Sunday is an interesting yarn: 100% merino that's machine washable without being superwash treated (it uses a different, more ecologically friendly method), which means it retains the natural drape and silky hand of untreated merino while still being easy to care for. That combination is less common than it sounds, and it makes Sunday a good choice for garments where you want softness and drape alongside practicality. Good stitch definition makes it well suited to textured work, and the natural merino character gives finished fabric a quality feel. A quietly excellent everyday fingering weight.
indulgent fibres with excellent manners
Sunday is a yarn that we would categorize as a polite hedonist. A polite hedonist loves luxury but keeps its manners. These yarns are made from indulgent fibres that feel wonderful to work with and create soft, wearable fabrics: luxury that behaves itself beautifully.
Still worth a proper introduction: swatch before committing, especially when substituting. And when it comes time to wash, treat finished pieces gently so the fibres can stay at their best.

Knit 6 more rows and cast off. Wash and block using the same method you will use for the finished item. Measure and count your gauge across the middle stitches of the swatch.
