The colour shifts gently across the skein, moving between velvety plum, wine-dark purple and softer smoky mauve, with subtle tonal variations that give the yarn plenty of depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRather than being a flat, solid colour, Muscat Noir has a beautifully shadowed quality, with darker areas settling alongside softer flashes of purple and berry. The overall effect is dark and sophisticated without becoming quite black — a rich, autumnal colour with a slightly mysterious edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a \u003cstrong\u003eone-of-a-kind colourway\u003c\/strong\u003e, dyed as a single batch, so there will be no exact repeat. It would make a beautiful statement on its own, or pair particularly well with soft greys, dusty pinks, deep berries, muted mauves and other dark, botanical shades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eDarjeeling 4 Ply\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDarjeeling is a beautifully soft and versatile 4 ply \/ fingering weight yarn made from 80% superwashed merino and 20% nylon. The merino gives this yarn its lovely softness and comfortable handle, while the nylon adds strength and durability without compromising its feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 400 metres per 100g, Darjeeling is an excellent choice for socks, where the added nylon provides extra resilience for everyday wear. It is equally suited to lightweight sweaters, cardigans, shawls, wraps, scarves and other garments and accessories where softness, drape and durability are important.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 4 ply construction gives good stitch definition and makes Darjeeling particularly adaptable to lace, textured stitches, cables and colourwork. It takes hand-dyed colour beautifully, allowing both subtle and highly saturated colourways to shine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eYarn Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFibre:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80% superwashed merino \/ 20% nylon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 ply \/ fingering \/ sock\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e 400 metres per 100g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 ply\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeedles:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.25–3.25mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCrochet Hook:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.5–3.5mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTypical Gauge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 27–32 stitches per 10cm, depending on project and needle size\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSocks, shawls, lightweight sweaters, cardigans, scarves, wraps, baby garments, colourwork and everyday accessories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand wash gently in cool water using a wool wash.
