At Green Tea Yarns, we are passionate about creating unique and captivating colours for your creative projects. One of our standout and long running colours is Fallen Ashes, a stunning charcoal grey that embodies sophistication, depth, and versatility.
"Fallen Ashes" draws its inspiration from the quiet beauty found in the aftermath of a smouldering fire. The ashy remnants left behind create a subtle, yet powerful, reminder of nature's ability to transform even the most destructive forces into something serene and captivating. The colour came about after the Australian bush fires.
The colour is warmer than the photos suggest.
Yarn Information: Osmanthus
Osmanthus is a luxurious and soft singles 4 ply yarn that combines the qualities of silk and merino wool. It is made by blending 30% mulberry silk and 70% merino wool fibres together, resulting in a yarn that is both silky smooth and warm. It runs at 400metres to 100gms.
The yarn is named after the Osmanthus flower, which has a delicate and sweet fragrance, just like this yarn. Osmanthus is available in a range of subtle and elegant colours that complement the lustrous quality of the silk and the natural warmth of the merino wool.
With a recommended needle size of 3.25-3.75 mm, Osmanthus has a versatile gauge that is suitable for a wide range of projects, from delicate lace shawls to cozy sweaters. The silk content gives the yarn a beautiful drape and sheen, while the merino wool provides warmth and softness.
