Ocean Swell – OOAK
A rich, deep ocean teal with inky blue-green undertones and subtle variations that catch the light across the yarn. Reminiscent of the sea in deeper waters, this colour has a lovely depth, shifting between dark teal and softer, more muted shades of blue-green. A one-of-a-kind colourway, with plenty of character for a special knitting or crochet project.
Masala 4 Ply Yarn – Merino, Silk & Yak
Masala is a beautifully balanced 4 ply yarn with a tight twist that gives excellent stitch definition and a smooth, even finish. Blending superwash merino with silk and yak, it combines the resilience and elasticity of merino with the subtle lustre of silk and the soft, muted quality of yak fibre.
With 366 metres per 100g hank, Masala is a versatile fingering-weight yarn suited to a wide range of knitting and crochet projects. Its firm twist makes it particularly well suited to textured stitches, lace patterns and garments where clear stitch definition is important.
Masala is a lovely choice for shawls, lightweight sweaters, cardigans, scarves and accessories. The silk and yak blend brings depth to hand-dyed colours, allowing subtle variations and tonal shifts to show through beautifully.
