Percy's Purple

A rich, saturated purple with beautiful indigo and violet undertones. Deep and jewel-like, this shade has a lovely intensity, with subtle shifts between royal purple and deep blue-violet as the light catches the yarn. A bold, full-bodied purple with plenty of depth, perfect for those who love their purples on the richer side.

Ginseng HL (3 Ply) – 100% Mulberry Silk

Ginseng HL is a luxurious 100% mulberry silk yarn with a beautiful natural sheen and an exceptionally smooth handle. Spun as a 3 ply heavy laceweight, it offers wonderful stitch definition and drape, making it an excellent choice for elegant lace shawls, wraps, scarves and lightweight garments.

Each hand-dyed skein develops rich tonal variation that enhances both simple stocking stitch and intricate lace patterns. The finished fabric feels cool against the skin, making Ginseng HL particularly well suited to year-round accessories and garments.

Although classed as a heavy laceweight, the generous 600 metres allows for substantial shawls and delicate layering pieces from a single skein. Knit on its own, it creates a fluid fabric with graceful drape, or pair it with a mohair silk yarn to add softness and a subtle halo.
