Orange Peel
Orange Peel is a rich, vibrant orange with a distinctly warm, citrus character. It sits between tangerine and blood orange, with glowing red-orange undertones that give the colour plenty of depth. There are subtle shifts through the skein, from brighter orange highlights to deeper, slightly russet shades, creating a lively colour that works beautifully on its own or alongside warm reds, golden yellows and earthy tones.

Osmanthus is a beautifully soft singles yarn that combines the elasticity of fine merino with the subtle sheen and drape of silk. The single-ply construction allows colours to bloom with gentle tonal variation, creating a fabric with depth and a softly organic appearance.
This yarn is ideal for shawls, lightweight garments, scarves and accessories where drape and colour are the focus. The silk adds a gentle lustre while the merino provides softness against the skin, making Osmanthus a pleasure to knit and wear.

As every skein is hand dyed in small batches, each one is unique. If your project requires more than one skein, we recommend alternating skeins every few rows for an even distribution of colour.
To keep your finished project looking its best, hand wash in cool water using a wool wash, gently squeeze out excess water and dry flat away from direct sunlight.
