This colour is a saturated, golden orange with strong warmth and depth. It sits firmly in the true orange range rather than drifting toward red or yellow, with a rich, almost marmalade-like intensity. The tone is even and glowing, catching the light beautifully and giving the yarn a lively, energetic presence without tipping into neon.
Tonal variations throughout the skeins.
Weight & Length
4 ply, sock or fingering yarn. 100 gms gives you 400 metres
Fibre
Darjeeling yarn: 80% Merino, 20% Nylon
Beautifully soft and just the right amount of nylon for a pair of socks. This also makes a gorgeous shawl or other wearable object.
It is recommended that you hand wash in cool to lukewarm water with a wool wash to prevent dissociating. Slight bleeding may occur but should not affect the final colour. The merino is superwash but the dye's not. (However, I'm not hand washing my socks so there!)
