Transcendence ooak - Darjeeling sock yarn - 4 ply

Transcendence is a vibrant blend of electric lime green, fresh spring green and deep teal blue. Bright chartreuse tones mingle with softer leaf greens and pale mint, while streaks of rich turquoise and blue-green add depth and contrast. The colours flow into one another in softly variegated shifts, creating a lively interplay between the cool, watery blues and the vivid greens of new growth. There are flashes of yellow-green that give the colourway an almost luminous quality, balanced by deeper teal sections that provide definition. Inspired by the meeting of lush foliage and clear tropical waters, Transcendence is a bold, energetic colourway with plenty of movement and variation, ideal for projects where colour can take centre stage.

Darjeeling 4 Ply

Darjeeling is a beautifully soft and versatile 4 ply / fingering weight yarn made from 80% superwashed merino and 20% nylon. The merino gives this yarn its lovely softness and comfortable handle, while the nylon adds strength and durability without compromising its feel.

At 400 metres per 100g, Darjeeling is an excellent choice for socks, where the added nylon provides extra resilience for everyday wear. It is equally suited to lightweight sweaters, cardigans, shawls, wraps, scarves and other garments and accessories where softness, drape and durability are important.

The 4 ply construction gives good stitch definition and makes Darjeeling particularly adaptable to lace, textured stitches, cables and colourwork. It takes hand-dyed colour beautifully, allowing both subtle and highly saturated colourways to shine.

Care

Hand wash gently in cool water using a wool wash. Avoid soaking for extended periods, agitation and wringing. Gently squeeze out excess water and dry flat. Although the merino is superwashed, gentle handling will help maintain the appearance and softness of your finished project.

As with all hand-dyed yarns, we recommend alternating skeins when using more than one skein in a project to help blend natural variations between skeins.
