Aubergine 
 
50% superwash merino, 50% cotton.
4 ply weight.
Each skein is 100g in weight & contains 400m of yarn.
 
A glorious mix of soft merino and cooling cotton. This blend produces a wonderful soft fabric, with the softness and elasticity of the merino, but the cooling properties of cotton. The two are fully blended, and take the dye in a very subtle way, producing slightly washed out, pastel shades, as the cotton portion of the yarn doesn't take the dye in the same way as the merino. This yarn has a very matt finish, in contrast to some our shiny silk yarns bases. Ideal for summer wear, or for baby accessories. 
 
Each skein is hand dyed in my home in North Wales. We are smoke free, but we do have a dog, although he's not generally allowed to play with the yarn! I use professional acid dyes which are fixed and thoroughly rinsed. Please note though that some colour bleed may occur on the first wash, especially with darker colours.
 
All skeins are dyed in small batches and I cannot guarantee the colour will be exactly from batch to batch. Please purchase enough to finish your project. If there is not sufficient quantity listed please get in touch. Most of my colourways are repeatable & can be dyed for you in a larger batch should you require it. It is advisable to alternated skeins within a project to minimise any differences between skeins, even from the same batch.
 
I try my best to get colours accurate but please do allow a little leeway for monitor and screen differences.
