Sea Mist - merino/nylon, Darjeeling DK - 8 ply (50g skeins)

Sea Mist is a delicate blend of soft aqua, pale blue and gentle green, creating a colour that is both fresh and quietly calming. Inspired by the fine veil of mist that drifts across the ocean at dawn, it carries a subtle silvery undertone that gives it an airy, luminous quality. The shade feels light and effortless, evoking cool sea breezes, still waters and distant coastal horizons softened by morning light. Neither distinctly blue nor green, Sea Mist sits beautifully between the two, offering a peaceful, understated elegance. It pairs effortlessly with crisp whites, warm neutrals, soft greys and deeper ocean tones, making it a wonderfully versatile colour for timeless, nature-inspired projects.

Darjeeling 8 Ply / DK

80% Superwash Merino | 20% Nylon
225m per 100g | 8 ply / DK weight

Darjeeling 8 ply is a soft and versatile DK-weight yarn, combining the smoothness and bounce of superwash merino with the added strength and resilience of nylon.

With a rounded structure and clear stitch definition, it works beautifully across a wide range of projects. The DK weight creates a comfortable, substantial fabric without feeling overly heavy, while the nylon adds durability for garments and accessories designed to be worn and enjoyed often.

Each skein is hand dyed in small batches, allowing colour to develop with subtle variation and character. As with all hand-dyed yarns, no two skeins will be exactly alike. When using more than one skein in a project, alternating skeins is recommended to create a balanced transition between them.

Darjeeling takes colour beautifully, with shades appearing clear and rich across the smooth merino base. It is well suited to sweaters, cardigans, vests, hats, scarves, shawls, blankets and children’s garments, as well as textured stitches, cables and colourwork.
