The colour has a softly greyed undertone, giving it a subdued, slightly weathered appearance rather than a bright or saturated blue. There are subtle variations through the skeins, with darker navy tones alongside softer charcoal-blue and smoky grey notes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOn Jasmine 8 ply, the colour has a beautiful depth that allows the texture and twist of the yarn to show through. It has the feeling of the sky just after sunset, when the last traces of daylight are fading and the deeper blue of evening begins to take over. A versatile blue for garments and accessories, Twilight would work particularly well with soft greys, muted greens, dusty pinks and other deep, atmospheric shades.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eJasmine 8 Ply DK – Merino Silk\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJasmine 8 Ply is a beautiful blend of \u003cstrong\u003e50% superwash merino and 50% silk\u003c\/strong\u003e, combining the softness and elasticity of merino with the natural lustre and drape of silk.
