This batch of Aubergine is a lovely combination of dusty aubergine with soft hints of black and an undertone of pink.

Beautiful and soft, pure wool, this wool will knit, crochet, weave or felt into a fantastic project like a shawl, beanie, scarf etc. there are a limited range of colours and skeins available. Also good for felting.

This yarn has been hand dyed using Australian made dyes right here in my little studio in the northwest coast of Tasmania.

 

Yarn Base Details

  • 225m per 100gm hank
  • Untreated Sustainable,
  • Australian Wool Yarn.
  • 19.5 microns, long staple,
  • Worsted spun.
  • DK Weight (approx. 4/9nm) 

A yarn that is as close to its natural origins as possible. No superwash treatment, just a wash to remove the grease and dirt from the fleece then combed for spinning. A great choice for those looking for a luxurious, non superwash, no nylon yarn

Please know that I take care with my photos but sometimes there may be a slight difference on screens. I also take care with my dyeing but as with all hand dyed fibres there may be a little variation in the shades throughout the skein. This is quite normal.
