A beautiful near solid bluish royal purple reminiscent of iris purple. Grandeur, but make it floral!
It is superwash treated 4ply sock yarn with 75% merino wool for softness and warmth and 25% nylon for enhanced durability. It is suitable for approximately 2-3mm needles. About 420 metres per 100g skein.
This upcycled yarn is spun from the same high quality merino as standard platinum sock. It uses leftovers from the mill, saving perfectly good wool from being wasted, and is virtually identical to the regular version. It is equally soft but, rather than the extreme smoothness of the platinum base, it has a very slightly cosier texture. (If it helps, Mads likens it to a blended whisky rather than a single malt!)
This yarn is presented as a skein. If you would like it caked then this adds 24h to the dispatch time and costs £2. You can purchase this service here:
