Granny's Cloak Moth #1 - Darjeeling sock yarn - 4 ply

Originally dyed as part of the 2025 yarn club  and now available individually -

Granny’s Cloak Moth #1 is a lively yet grounded variegated colourway that draws on the unexpected beauty of a moth’s wings in motion. Rich ginger tones form the base, warm and earthy, with streaks of deep plum purple and lively pink running through the skein. Speckles in related shades are scattered throughout, adding texture and visual surprise. The result is a colourway that feels both wild and wearable—full of movement, yet harmonised by its palette. This is a shade that brings together nature’s flamboyance with a sense of age-old wisdom, ideal for shawls, garments, or accessories that want to make a quiet statement. Beautiful on its own or paired with the other colours in the Granny’s Cloak Moth series.

Fibre Information

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

Darjeeling yarn: 80% Merino, 20% 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 not. (However, I'm not hand washing my socks so there!)
