Dawn Haze - 5 ply silk/mohair and nylon - Rooibos

Dawn Haze

A returning favourite, Dawn Haze captures the quiet beauty of first light before the sun breaks the horizon. Smoky charcoal and soft graphite form the foundation, layered with shifting tones of muted violet, dusky plum and hints of lavender that emerge like morning mist. The result is a richly tonal colourway that feels both moody and serene, with gentle depth that reveals something new from every angle.

Beautiful on its own or paired with silvers, charcoal, soft mauves and deep purples, Dawn Haze is a versatile colourway that shines in shawls, sweaters, cardigans and elegant accessories. Its subtle transitions create fabric with depth and movement while remaining wonderfully wearable.

A timeless Green Tea Yarns colourway, Dawn Haze has returned for those who have loved it before—and for knitters discovering its quiet beauty for the first time.

Rooibos – Mohair & Silk 5 Ply Yarn

Rooibos is an unusual luxury yarn combining the soft halo of mohair with the lustre and fluid drape of silk. A small amount of nylon adds strength and stability while allowing the beauty of the natural fibres to remain the focus.

With 69% silk, Rooibos has a smooth feel, gentle sheen and beautiful movement. The 22% mohair creates a soft bloom around the yarn without the very light, airy structure usually associated with laceweight mohair yarns. The result is a more substantial yarn with texture, depth and a softly diffused finish.

Running at 350 metres per 100g, Rooibos sits within the 5 ply or sport-weight range, although its generous metreage makes it suitable for projects where a lighter fabric is preferred. It can be worked on its own to create flowing shawls, lightweight garments and accessories, with the silk providing drape and the mohair adding softness and character.

Rooibos may also be held together with another yarn to introduce a subtle halo, additional depth and a touch of silk lustre. As with all yarns containing mohair, the finished fabric will soften and bloom after washing.

Each colour is hand dyed in small batches. Variations between skeins are part of the nature of hand-dyed yarn, and alternating skeins is recommended when working on larger projects.
