Hand dyed superwash merino with nylon fingering weight sock yarn in colourway Faded Bloom - a muted, faded but fairly dark pink-red.

This is a sister yarn to our Brimham 4ply - this version is a two ply high twist yarn with the same fibre content. The two strands twisted tightly together give it a different texture, and make it a good solid yarn with plenty of structure. It's smooth and soft enough for next to skin wear as well. Worked at a looser gauge it has enough drape for lace, and it has very crisp stitch definition for cables and lace.

(although we recommend handwashing all handknits/crochet if possible)

We recommend that you wash dark colours separately or wash a swatch before using dark and light colours together.

As with all hand dyed yarns, I would recommend that you use two skeins at a time, alternating from each one every couple of rows/rounds (unless it's a one-skein project).
