Colour Description
'Ken’ is so cool. This variegated colourway of tan, vibrant denim blue, almost-neon green, Barbie pink, platinum blonde and violet try to encapsulate some of Ken’s distinctive energy.
’Ken’ pairs perfectly with ‘Barbie’, of course, and also looks amazing with Emerald, Donatella, Gingerbread, California, Cinnamon, Stormcloud, Lavender, Antidote, Quartz, Citrine, Lagoon and Chilli Choc.
Small batch hand-dyed.
Yarn Description
Exquisite quality pure NZ Corriedale 4ply yarn. Corriedale has a very similar squish and softness to Merino but is harder wearing, longer lasting and more pill-resistant. Beautifully cozy and supple to work with and wear.
415m per 100g
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.
