Neon Cuckoo Bee #2 - Merino/Silk 4 ply single - Osmanthus

Neon Cuckoo Bee #2

Neon Cuckoo Bee #2 is a vivid turquoise-teal inspired by the brilliant jewel-like colouring of its namesake. Clear aqua and blue-green tones combine to create a bright, fresh colour with plenty of depth, while the natural sheen of the yarn gives the surface an almost luminous quality.

Bold without being overpowering, Neon Cuckoo Bee #2 brings a lively splash of colour to shawls, garments and accessories. It works beautifully as a vibrant feature colour or paired with deep blues, rich greens, soft greys and contrasting jewel tones.

Osmanthus 4 Ply

Osmanthus is a soft and lustrous singles yarn, blending 70% merino with 30% silk. The merino provides softness and gentle bounce, while the silk adds drape, strength and a subtle sheen.

Its single-ply construction gives the yarn a smooth surface with a softly textured character, allowing hand-dyed colours to appear rich and luminous. Osmanthus creates a lightweight fabric with fluid movement and beautiful stitch definition, making it particularly suited to shawls, lightweight garments and accessories.

Fibre: 70% merino, 30% silk
Weight: 4 ply / fingering weight
Construction: Singles / single ply
Length: 400 metres per 100g skein

As a singles yarn, Osmanthus is best suited to projects that will not be exposed to heavy abrasion. The silk content adds strength while giving the finished fabric a soft lustre and graceful drape.

Care: Hand wash gently in cool water using a wool-safe wash. Avoid agitation and lay flat to dry.

Please note: As each skein is individually hand dyed, some variation may occur between skeins. We recommend alternating skeins when working on larger projects.
