A cute froggy green on a superwash treated DK weight yarn spun from 75% merino wool that’s soft and warm with 25% nylon for enhanced durability.
For this complex colourway I first fix speckles in three different shades of green and then overdye with foliage green to create a leafy camouflage mix that mimics the colours that allow these frogs to chill in a leaf without being seen by predators. The underlying speckles provide a visual effect similar to the frogs textured skin while the yarn stays soft and smooth.
It has subtle speckling that gives the colourway an extra dimension of interest. From a distance, it’s a lovely green, but when you look carefully you can appreciate the complexity of this time consuming dye work.
Suitable for 4-5mm needles. Around 224 metres per 100g skein. This yarn is presented as a skein. If you would like it caked then this adds 24h to the dispatch time.
