Gloaming
The fleeting moments between sunset and nightfall have long been known as gloaming—that quiet time when the landscape softens, colours deepen, and the world seems to slow. This five-skein fade captures that gentle transition, beginning with rich midnight violet before flowing through layers of dusky indigo and muted periwinkle to a soft lavender-grey.
The gradual progression creates a beautifully seamless gradient, making it ideal for larger shawls, sweaters and wraps where the subtle shift in colour can truly shine. Each skein blends effortlessly into the next, allowing the fade to unfold naturally across your project.
There is a calmness to Gloaming—the still air at the close of day, distant hills fading into shadow, and the last traces of twilight lingering on the horizon. It is a palette of quiet depth, understated beauty, and timeless colour.
Like all Green Tea Yarns fades, each skein has been carefully hand dyed to create a smooth, harmonious transition from one shade to the next, bringing depth and movement to every stitch.
