I use undyed wools that are soft and complement the muted shades of the natural colours. All have been specially chosen for their high quality. They dye well and wash well by hand (they've not been processed to make them machine washable), the colours are light and wash fast.  Simple textures are effective - garter stitch, reverse stocking stitch, moss stitch and ribs look good.
