Rare and Exotic Beast: Deep Cranberry - Starboard

Regular price $35.00

Tax included.

This OOAK colour is a very saturated magenta colour - washed with layers of charcoal. There's not really cranberry going on - it was some sort of brain fart. Apologies - I'm not going to make it a new label because that will be very confusing for anyone who already has some. (Small business accidents do happen.)

All skeins are from the same batch, but due to the number of processes involved, alternating skeins is recommended for a more even result on larger projects!

(This is a very saturated colourway. I have washed it and the rinse water is clear. If you are planning to knit this with a light colour, I would recommend knitting a small test swatch with all the colours you're using, and wash and block in the usual way. Cold water and a couple of drops of dishwashing liquid is a good bet!)

 


Shiny and silky, starboard is a single ply yarn, perfect for luxurious accessories. (Starboard may look a little kinky in the skein, rest assured it lies flat and smooth when knitted up!)
