Trad Wife is a deep, confident teal that sits comfortably between blue and green. It has a strong oceanic base, leaning slightly toward blue, with darker inky areas that add depth and movement through the skein. The colour feels grounded and practical, yet rich—reminiscent of well-worn denim, deep seawater, and classic workwear tones.
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!)
