Royal Purple is a deep, regal shade of purple that leans slightly towards blue, giving it a cool, majestic richness. On this yarn, it’s enhanced with a subtle sparkle that catches the light, adding a touch of glamour and movement to the colour. Perfect for shawls, scarves, or statement pieces, it brings depth and elegance while the shimmer adds a playful, eye-catching dimension. It’s a bold yet sophisticated shade, ideal for projects where a little extra magic is desired.
This colour is one of kind and not to be repeated - as is the yarn which is being discontinued.

It doesn't have it own page as I keep it for special occasions
Not as soft as my regular sock yarn but this makes a gorgeous shawl or other wearable object with a touch of extra sparkle.
It is recommended that you hand wash in cool to luke-warm 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!)
