Moonlit is a very pale, whisper-soft purple with a cool, silvery cast. It sits right on the edge between lavender and grey, like violet light diluted by moon glow. Subtle blue undertones keep it fresh and calm rather than sweet, giving it an airy, almost frosted quality. In brighter light it reads as a clean, light lavender; in softer light it settles into a gentle pearl-grey lilac. Elegant and restrained, this is a colour that lets texture and stitch work shine while adding just a quiet hint of purple magic.
This batch of Shui Yun has a slightly drier hand than our usual cloud-soft halo, offering a more defined texture and gentle structure. The firm silk core gives strength and subtle sheen, while the mohair creates a light, refined haze rather than a soft fluff. It is being offered at a 20% auto discount.

Gorgeous and fluffy - not easy to work with but beautiful for an added touch of luxury.
After seeing how one of my customers masterfully blends her luxury yarns - combining lace weights and luxury silks with Shui Yun I knew I should offer it in my line up.
Combine it with silk or merino for a wonderfully soft and fluffy project!
It is highly recommended that you hand wash in cool to lukewarm water with a special silk detergent. Slight bleeding may occur but should not effect the final colour.
