Woodland Fern ooak - Darjeeling DK sock yarn - 8 ply

Woodland Fern ooak

Woodland Fern is a rich, leafy green inspired by the layers of colour found among ferns growing beneath a forest canopy. It moves between deep mossy green, fresh fern and brighter yellow-green highlights, with darker areas adding depth and variation. The result is a lively, naturally variegated green that feels very much at home with earthy, botanical and woodland-inspired palettes.

A lovely choice for projects where you want green with plenty of movement, rather than a single flat shade.

Darjeeling 8 Ply / DK

80% Superwash Merino | 20% Nylon
225m per 100g | 8 ply / DK weight

Darjeeling 8 ply is a soft and versatile DK-weight yarn, combining the smoothness and bounce of superwash merino with the added strength and resilience of nylon.

With a rounded structure and clear stitch definition, it works beautifully across a wide range of projects. The DK weight creates a comfortable, substantial fabric without feeling overly heavy, while the nylon adds durability for garments and accessories designed to be worn and enjoyed often.

Each skein is hand dyed in small batches, allowing colour to develop with subtle variation and character. As with all hand-dyed yarns, no two skeins will be exactly alike. When using more than one skein in a project, alternating skeins is recommended to create a balanced transition between them.

Darjeeling takes colour beautifully, with shades appearing clear and rich across the smooth merino base. It is well suited to sweaters, cardigans, vests, hats, scarves, shawls, blankets and children’s garments, as well as textured stitches, cables and colourwork.
