Oysters on the Bay - Jasmine 5

Oysters on the Bay is a serene, coastal-inspired colourway that captures the soft, shifting palette of oyster shells resting on a quiet shoreline. Muted greys form the base, gently layered with touches of silvery lavender, pale mauve, and the faintest hint of blue-green—like sea-glass glimpsed beneath the water. There are subtle tonal shifts throughout, evoking the natural patina of shells polished by tide and time. It’s an elegant, understated colourway with a gentle lustre, perfect for those who love a refined neutral with a sea-swept edge. Whether used alone or paired with bolder shades, it brings a sense of calm and coastal clarity.

Jasmine 5 Ply – Sport Weight

50% Superwash Merino / 50% Mulberry Silk | 300m per 100g | Sport Weight

Jasmine 5 Ply is a beautiful blend of 50% superwash merino and 50% mulberry silk, combining the softness and elasticity of merino with the smoothness and gentle sheen of silk.

A little heavier than Jasmine 4 Ply, this sport-weight yarn has a tighter ply twist, giving it a smooth, well-defined stitch and excellent stitch definition. The superwash merino makes it practical for garments and accessories that need a little more ease of care, while the silk adds drape, lustre and a lovely handle.

Jasmine 5 Ply is particularly suited to sweaters, cardigans, shawls, scarves, hats and other garments, and works beautifully for textured stitches, lace and colourwork.

As a hand-dyed yarn, Jasmine 5 Ply takes colour beautifully, with the merino providing depth and the silk adding subtle luminosity to the finished colour.
