This colourway has evolved from the original pink and yellow Flamboyant Cuttlefish dyed for Perth Yarn Fest in 2016, becoming one of my nudibranch series (a charitable edition with ALL profits to a women’s shelter for International Women’s Day in March 2017), and returning as a cross between “Rosy Maple Moth” (2015) and “Ornamental Flower” (2018).
Each batch over the years has been different, and this final one includes some orange speckles. Apparently orange should have been part of it all along but who knew?!? And these days we give our charitable donations privately so good causes benefit whether or not you choose to buy from us.
This yarn is spun from 87% merino wool that’s soft and warm with 13% pima cotton for additional durability, plus a wonderful velvety texture and stunning visual effect. I use dyes that bind to the wool but not the cotton for a beautiful glint of white. Around 400 metres per 100g skein. Suitable for 2-3mm needles or hook. Suitable for socks.
This yarn is presented as a skein. If you would like it caked then this adds 24h to the dispatch time.
