Rare and Exotic Beast: Iron Mix - Hesperus

Regular price $38.00

Tax included.

This OOAK colour is a tonally variegated iron grey. It's a mid-toned shade.

 

  **This is a very saturated colourway. I have washed it and the rinse water is clear. However, as water and washing method may vary, if you're planning on using with a lighter 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!

Hesperus is a fuzzy blend of kid mohair bound with silk - perfect for adding a bit of fluff to your projects.

Excellent on its own for light as air accessories, or as a carry-along yarn.

I try hard to take photos that accurately represent the colour of the yarn, but please note that screens all show colour a little differently. If you have questions about colours, please ask, and I will do my best to describe them for you!
