Vintage Button is a rich, deep teal with layers of blue and green woven through its depths. On the skein, the colour moves between dark, almost inky teal and brighter flashes of peacock blue, giving it wonderful depth and movement.
There is something particularly striking about this colour on Gyrokuro, where the soft halo of mohair catches the light and the tiny sequins add little glimmers amongst the darker tones. It has the feel of a much-loved vintage treasure — bold enough to make a statement, but with enough depth and complexity to sit beautifully alongside softer or more muted shades.
A beautiful choice when you want a colour with richness and character, Vintage Button is particularly lovely for shawls, colourwork or as a companion skein carried alongside another yarn.
Jasmine 5 Ply – Sport Weight
50% Superwash Merino / 50% Mulberry Silk | 300m per 100g | Sport Weight
Jasmine 5 Ply is a beautiful blend of 50% superwash merino and 50% mulberry silk, combining the softness and elasticity of merino with the smoothness and gentle sheen of silk.
A little heavier than Jasmine 4 Ply, this sport-weight yarn has a tighter ply twist, giving it a smooth, well-defined stitch and excellent stitch definition. The superwash merino makes it practical for garments and accessories that need a little more ease of care, while the silk adds drape, lustre and a lovely handle.
Jasmine 5 Ply is particularly suited to sweaters, cardigans, shawls, scarves, hats and other garments, and works beautifully for textured stitches, lace and colourwork.
As a hand-dyed yarn, Jasmine 5 Ply takes colour beautifully, with the merino providing depth and the silk adding subtle luminosity to the finished colour.

Dyeing: Hand dyed in small batches by Green Tea Yarns
Care Instructions
Hand wash gently in cool or lukewarm water using a wool wash. Do not agitate or rub. Rinse thoroughly and gently squeeze out excess water. Reshape and dry flat. Do not tumble dry.
Please note: Hand-dyed yarns can vary slightly between dye lots. For larger projects, we recommend purchasing enough yarn from the same dye lot where possible, or alternating skeins when working with multiple skeins.
If you want, I can also make the Jasmine 4 Ply and Jasmine 5 Ply descriptions deliberately parallel, so the two product pages read as a matching range while clearly explaining the difference between them.
Red Dune is a rich, earthy orange-red with deep terracotta and russet tones. Brown undertones give the colour depth, while flashes of warm copper and burnt orange add variation through the skein. A beautifully autumnal shade with a naturally earthy character.

Jasmine – Sport Weight Merino Silk
Jasmine 5 is a luxurious 5-ply sport weight yarn, blending the softness of merino with the luminous sheen of silk in a perfect 50/50 balance. With a tight twist, this yarn offers excellent stitch definition, making it ideal for everything from delicate lacework to smooth, even stockinette. It has a beautiful drape and a slight shimmer that catches the light, enhancing any project with an elegant finish.
Jasmine 5 knits up beautifully on its own but truly shines when paired with our mohair and silk base, Shui Yun, adding depth, texture, and a soft halo. Whether used for shawls, lightweight sweaters, or intricate accessories, this yarn is a dream to work with and wear.
