Burnished Copper is a warm, glowing blend of golden ochre and rich copper, with soft shifts into deeper rust. The colour moves gently across the skein, from sunlit honeyed tones through to darker, toasted amber, creating a sense of depth without harsh contrast.
There’s a quiet brightness to it — not brash, but steady and warm — like late afternoon light catching on dry grass and worn metal. The balance of gold and copper gives it life and movement, giving the shade a gentle luminosity.
Tonal variation throughout the skeins.
Weight and Length
4 ply, sock or fingering yarn. 100 gms gives you 400 metres
Fibre
Darjeeling yarn: 85% Merino, 15% 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!)
