Pink Winged Phasma #3 - 4 ply sock yarn in merino and nylon - Darjeeling 4

A deep, moody teal green forms the base of this colourway, layered with flashes of coral pink, dusky rose and touches of turquoise. The darker tones give the colour depth, while the brighter pinks appear in scattered bursts, creating an almost ember-like effect across the skein.

Originally dyed as part of the Bugs & Insects Yarn Club, Pink Winged Phasma is now available as individual skeins — perfect for adding a little colour and contrast to a project, or pairing with other Darjeeling colourways.

Darjeeling Sock Yarn

80% Superwash Merino | 20% Nylon
4 Ply / Fingering Weight
400 metres per 100g

Darjeeling is a beautifully balanced sock yarn that combines the softness of fine superwash merino with the added strength of nylon, creating a versatile yarn that is equally at home in socks, shawls, garments and accessories.

The merino provides warmth, softness and excellent stitch definition, while the nylon adds durability without compromising the luxurious feel of the yarn. Although designed with socks in mind, Darjeeling is an excellent choice for lightweight sweaters, cardigans, hats, mittens, baby garments and everyday shawls that will see regular wear.

This smooth 4 ply yarn produces crisp stitch definition, making textured stitches, cables, lace and colourwork stand out beautifully. It dyes exceptionally well, allowing each Green Tea Yarns colourway to shine with depth and clarity.

• Avoid bleach and harsh detergents.

• Gently squeeze out excess water without wringing.

• Roll in a towel to remove additional moisture.

If machine washing is necessary, use a gentle wool cycle in cool water and place your project inside a laundry bag. Dry flat afterwards.

Darjeeling is a dependable everyday luxury—soft enough to wear next to the skin, durable enough for hardworking socks, and versatile enough for almost any 4 ply project.
