Banksia Light

Banksia Light is a soft, muted olive green with a lovely natural variation through the skein. There are subtle hints of moss, lichen and warm khaki, with lighter yellow-green tones catching between the strands. The overall effect is earthy without being heavy, sitting somewhere between soft olive and weathered eucalyptus.

On this single-ply yarn, the colour shifts gently as the fine strands move across the skein, giving Banksia Light a beautifully layered appearance rather than a flat block of colour. It has the quiet, slightly weathered quality of Australian bushland — a versatile green that would sit particularly well alongside creams, soft browns, sage, ochre and deeper forest tones.

Would make a gorgeous beaded shawl or be a great addition to add to another base to give you added weight on a project.


Tonal variations throughout the skein.

Cassis Lace

2 Ply · Laceweight · 800m / 100g

Cassis Lace is a fine 2 ply laceweight yarn combining 65% Merino wool, 15% Yak and 20% Silk. The yak adds a soft, slightly heathered quality to the wool, while silk gives the yarn a gentle sheen and smooth handle.

With 800 metres to 100g, Cassis Lace is particularly well suited to lace shawls, lightweight wraps and fine knitted garments. It can be used on its own for intricate lacework or paired with another yarn to add colour, texture and depth.
