ZIRCON - YAK SILK 4PLY 100G

Zircon

Tonal intense teal blue.

One of our all time favourite yarn bases, this blend of Superwash Merino, Silk and Yak feels so soft and luxurious and the natural grey fibres add a sophisticated, smokey depth to our colourways.  With its subtle sheen, great stitch definition and drape this yarn is perfect for accessories, garments and weaving.   We also stock a DK version of this base.

We recommend hand washing only at a cool temperature with a gentle detergent or specialist wool wash.  While every care has been taken to remove excess dye some light bleeding may still occur.

Our Hand Dyed Yarn

Our yarn is dyed and finished by hand in our dedicated studio.  We take great care at every stage of processing and each skein is checked before sale to ensure it meets our high standards.   

As with all hand dyed yarns variations can occur from skein to skein and between batches, if you are using more than one skein of the same colourway in a project we recommend alternating skeins every one or two rows. 

We offer Dye to Order on most of our colourways and core bases (depending on current undyed stock levels) please check our Dye to Order section for further information and to place an order.

Our product photographs are taken using professional studio lights as we don't have much natural daylight available at our studio.  We do our best to provide accurate colour representation in our images however we cannot account for settings on individual devices.
