Buttercream - 4 ply sock yarn in merino and nylon - Darjeeling

Buttercream is a soothing and understated shade, reminiscent of the delicate hue of smooth, whipped butter with a touch of creaminess. This very pale pastel yellow captures the essence of softness, making it both elegant and versatile. It evokes a sense of warmth without being overpowering, making it an ideal choice for those who appreciate subtlety in their colour choices. Its barely-there tint of yellow brings a hint of sunshine, creating a gentle glow that feels airy and refreshing. Whether used in larger projects or as a delicate accent, Buttercream adds a warm, serene touch to any setting or piece.

Weight & Length

4 ply, sock or fingering yarn. 100 gms gives you 400 metres

Fibre

Darjeeling yarn: 85% Merino, 15% 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 dyes are not. (However, I'm not hand washing my socks so there!)
