Yarns
Our luxury yarns include :-
- Cashmere/Angora/Lambswool blend
- Shetland and Merino aran weight
- Cord Silk
- Organic Cotton
- Handspun Baby Camel
All of our dyed yarns are dyed for us by Shilasdair Yarns in specially designed dyeing cabinets using locally collected or imported natural dyes, except for the Peruvian organic cotton which is dyed in Peru using traditional natural dyestuffs and methods.
PLEASE NOTE -
- Yarns titled 'wool and wool mixes' have colour codes which are generically applicable to all Aran, luxury mix DK and 4ply garments in the Garments and KnitKits pages.
- The only exception to this are the natural shades of the undyed Shetland yarns (mid brown/dark brown and three shades of grey) these are available ONLY in Aran weight yarns.
- Cream yarn is available in Aran/DK and 4Ply weights.
- The cotton and silk codes apply to their own garment pages.
The nature of natural dyes, depending on where and when they are collected, whether the dyestuff is used fresh or dried means that colours cannot be exactly replicated. Therefore when making a choice please identify a range of colours in a particular type of yarn and we will send you some samples from which you can make your final selection.
Please ensure that you order enough for your project as we cannot guarantee to be able to match the shade at a later date. You can order using our "Contact Us & Order" page and payment can be made via Paypal invoice, a cheque, or you can contact the shop with your card details.
