Colour Description
'Deeper Dive' is a deeper, darker, double-strength version of 'Deep Dive'.
('Deep Dive' is a variegated colourway, refreshingly soothing with tones of a deep dark pool of cool marine blue, teal, seaglass green and the mahogany brown of shady trees and murky depths. It is part of the Spring Summer 22-23 collection.)
'Deeper Dark Dive' may appear black in low/dark lighting, but in sunlight or brighter lighting those greeny-blue tones will really glow.
Small batch hand-dyed.

2ply / Light Fingering weight yarn.
Small batch, hand-dyed yarn from my little studio in Lower Hutt, Aotearoa/New Zealand. Everything, from sourcing the yarn to shipping, is done with love and care by hand. The nature of hand-dyed yarn is that no two skeins are exactly the same, creating beautifully nuanced colourways.
I source finest quality, fully traceable and mulesing-free, ethically, sustainably farmed yarns from New Zealand and abroad.
The dyes I use are made in Australia and New Zealand. They are acid dyes that are used for dyeing protein-based fibre (such as wool and silk). I take every care to use only the quantities necessary to create my colourways. This means that the dyepot is fully exhausted when the dyeing is complete.
