Description
A 50:50 Superwash merino silk sock yarn with the glimmer and drape of silk, and the softness of merino yarn. It literally shines. I love this blend so much that I also have it in Lace and DK.
Thinking up names for all of my colourways never seemed to do them justice. As I love music almost as much as colour it seemed that a good and never-ending source of inspiration would be to name them after some of my favourite tracks…
A couple of things to bear in mind about hand dyed yarn:
- No two skeins are ever the same, even if they have been dyed in the same pot. I recommend you knit with two skeins and alternate every other row for consistency on larger projects.
- Whilst every effort has been taken to ensure colour-fastness, there is a chance that some residual dye may remain (this is normal – think jeans…) I suggest hand washing all garments in cool water prior to being worn and keep bright colours separate.

Lovely yarn, just what I was expecting. Making my garment with it now so unsure of how it will wash, last etc. But I expect it will be just fine.

The yarn that came looked nothing like it did on the screen and I wasn’t very happy with the match but it still very soft and I’, sure someone would like it

Dear June,
I am so sorry that you didn’t like the yarn? I am really surprised by your comment as I had actually sent you a photograph of the exact skein that I was sending you, next to the colourway that you had already purchased so that you could see them next to each other… It’s not the same as the one on the website but that’s why I sent you the photograph via email.
I am not sure what else I could have done, but of course if you are not happy with it please by all means return it and I will happily offer you a refund.
Best wishes
Abby
