Our yarns range from Lace Weight to Worsted Weight and are available in all the colorways. Each skein is hand-dyed individually which creates a uniqueness even within the same colorway. The variation in color adds character in interest to the yarn. The pictures below represent our colorways using a variety of yarns. The fiber makeup of each yarn takes the dyes differently which affects the intensity of color. Therefore, there will be some variation between the picture and the finished product.
Lace Weights - We have 2 lace weight yarns available; Bellezza (100% Merino) and Godiva (Merino/Silk blend). Both yarns have beautiful drape and a wonderful hand.
Fingering Weight - All our fingering weights are superwash which makes them great for socks. However, these yarns are wonderful for lace wraps and shawls. We have 4 yarns in this weight: Footsie (Wool/Nylon), Bambino (Merino/Bamboo/Nylon), Twinkle Toes (Merino/Tencel) and Pippi (100% Merino). Each has unique characteristics: Footsie has extra strength with the addition of nylon, Bambino has breathability due to the bamboo, Twinkle Toes has a sheen and drape with the inclusion of tencel and Pippi is a bit thicker and a more intense color.
Sport Weight - There are 2 yarns in this category - Evolution (100% Opitm) which is limited in quantity and will be discontinued when our stock is exhaused. This yarn has a lot of drape. The other sport weight is Serenity (Merino/Bamboo) which is great for sweaters and next to the skin garments.
Worsted Weight - We have 4 yarns which are not superwash and 1 yarn which is superwash in this category. Intrigue (100% Bluefaced Leicester) is a soft lofty yarn, Harmony (Alpaca/Merino/Silk) is super soft and lovely, Sophie (Wool/Silk) which is great for hats, gloves, sweaters etc. and Swizzle Sticks (100% Merino) has one ply that takes the dye darker than the rest resulting in a candy-cane affect. This knits up with almost a tweed look. Inspiration (100% Superwash Merino) is our only superwash worsted weight yarn at this time.
