Layers of peacock blue, turquoise and blue-green shift gently across the yarn, creating subtle variations from vivid jewel tones through to deeper, shadowed blue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a fluffy mohair and silk base, the colour takes on an airy softness while retaining its intensity. The silk core catches the light beneath the halo, adding small flashes of brighter blue and giving the finished fabric depth and movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBold without being overly bright, Suede Shoes is a striking colour that works beautifully on its own or alongside deep greens, charcoal, silver grey, warm gold and contrasting shades of rust or copper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eShui Yun – Mohair \u0026amp; Silk Laceweight Yarn\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShui Yun is a light, airy blend of 65% kid mohair and 35% silk, combining the soft halo of fine mohair with the gentle sheen and strength of a silk core. The yarn creates a beautifully soft fabric with warmth but very little weight, making it ideal for adding texture, depth and a subtle haze of colour to knitted and crocheted projects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse Shui Yun on its own for fine, ethereal lacework, or hold it together with another yarn to add softness, halo and colour variation. It pairs particularly well with 4 ply\/fingering yarns, adding a soft bloom without significantly changing the weight of the finished fabric. Two strands may also be held together for a fuller, more substantial fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShui Yun is hand dyed in small batches, creating subtle variations between skeins. For larger projects using more than one skein, alternating skeins will help blend these natural variations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFibre:\u003c\/strong\u003e 65% Kid Mohair, 35% Silk\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 ply \/ Laceweight\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e 420 metres per 50g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkein sizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• 20g – approximately 168 metres\u003cbr\u003e• 50g – approximately 420 metres\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested needle size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3–5 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested hook size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3–5 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApproximate gauge when used alone:\u003c\/strong\u003e 22–28 stitches per 10 cm, depending on needle size and the openness of the fabric.
