Sundowner - warm rich gold mingles with pinks and lilacs, reminiscent of the sky at the end of the day.
 
80% superwash merino, 10% cashmere, 10% nylon.
4 ply weight.
Each skein is 100g in weight & contains 365m (464yds) of yarn.
 
A soft merino sock yarn, made extra soft and by the addition of cashmere. The nylon content gives it strength, as does the slightly higher than usual twist. Cashmere sock yarn can often be super fluffy, and shed everywhere, but this is a high twist version. This gives you a little less fluff and shed, but still gives you the warmth and softness of a standard cashemere sock yarn. The high twist also gives it a lovely crispness and depths to the colours. Perfect for socks, but just as good for hats, mitts or even sweaters. Soft enough to ware next to skin, but sturdy enough to take lots of wear.
 
This is a superwash yarn, so can go on a cool wool wash machine cycle, but I do always advise hand washing to preserve the colours and shape of handknits.
 
Each skein is hand dyed in my home in North Wales. We are smoke free, but we do have a dog, although she'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.
