Rare and Exotic Beast: Extreme Pink - Merino Singles

Regular price $35.00

Tax included.

This OOAK colour is a fairly obnoxious saturated pink. It's a bright lipstick pink, slightly cool leaning. This colour is a semi-solid.


This colour is made with beautiful but fickle dye. Like many neon/fluoro dyes, it fades in uv light more quickly than standard dyes. For longevity of this colour, we recommended storing yarn/ or finished knit in a drawer or cupboard (out of all light, not just direct sunlight) when not in use.

(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!)

-------

Matt and squashy, this is a singles spun yarn, that knits at a 4ply gauge. It's perfect for accessories and garments (not socks!!). (This base may look a little kinky in the skein, rest assured it lies flat and smooth when knitted up!)
