Conntraigh DK

A perfect mix of Cheviot and Hebridean wool is used to create a magical strand that shifts from light to dark. Inspired by the subtlety of a neap tide, Conntraigh creates a gradient stripe effect when knitted, blending subtly from pale, ice-cool grey into a dark, blue-slate grey and back again.

Siaban DK

A salty blend of Uist wools, this pale and mysterious yarn matches the blurred edges between sand and land as dunes drift and settle beyond the beaches in a wild Winter gale. Pale in color, Siaban ripples and pulses with interest, tone, and shade as the contrasting colors of the blended fibers nestle together in the twist to form true depth of shade in this light yarn.
