'Lilac Wine' (Long Fingering)
‘Lilac Wine ’ - a brand new shade for 2025. Gentle, blue-leaning lilac.
50% British Wensleydale/ 50% Peruvian Merino. 100g=425m. Non-superwash.
This is a toothy high twist 4ply made from Wensleydale, known for it’s high lustre, immense drape and rather long staple length, and Peruvian Merino for some added softness.
I have sensitive skin and this does not feel particularly itchy to me, though it’s not as soft as a pure merino.
Customer feedback:
“The colours are so vibrant and rich and after blocking it’s definitely soft enough to wear next to the skin. It’s got a gorgeous lustre and drape and I’m obsessed! I think I have found the perfect shawl yarn!”
Dyed in my London studio, using professional acid dyes and professional techniques.
My home and studio are smokeless and pet-free.
As with any hand dyed yarn, hand washing in cold water is recommended. Whilst I do my best to ensure there is minimal, if any, bleeding, I can't make a 100% guarantee that my more saturated colours will not bleed a tiny bit.
Please note - due to variations in monitors etc., colour may appear slightly different in real life. I do, however, try my very best to accurately represent my wares.
