Teal Rift ooak - 3 ply silk/heavy lace - Ginseng hl

Teal Rift is a rich, one-of-a-kind teal that shifts effortlessly between deep blue-green and cool emerald, revealing subtle changes in tone as the light catches the silk. Darker pools of colour flow into luminous highlights, creating the impression of a hidden rift beneath still water.

Reminiscent of glacial lakes, weathered copper and the depths of the ocean, this colour has a quiet confidence that pairs beautifully with neutrals, charcoal, soft greys and warm natural tones. The gentle tonal variation adds depth to simple stitches while allowing lace, cables and textured patterns to remain beautifully defined.

As a one-of-a-kind (OOAK) colourway, Teal Rift was dyed only once and cannot be exactly recreated. When it's gone, this unique colour will remain a singular part of the Green Tea Yarns collection.

Ginseng HL (3 Ply) – 100% Mulberry Silk

Ginseng HL is a luxurious 100% mulberry silk yarn with a beautiful natural sheen and an exceptionally smooth handle. Spun as a 3 ply heavy laceweight, it offers wonderful stitch definition and drape, making it an excellent choice for elegant lace shawls, wraps, scarves and lightweight garments.

Each hand-dyed skein develops rich tonal variation that enhances both simple stocking stitch and intricate lace patterns. The finished fabric feels cool against the skin, making Ginseng HL particularly well suited to year-round accessories and garments.

Although classed as a heavy laceweight, the generous 600 metres allows for substantial shawls and delicate layering pieces from a single skein. Knit on its own, it creates a fluid fabric with graceful drape, or pair it with a mohair silk yarn to add softness and a subtle halo.
