Camelia // Sparkle Sock
This is a ultrafine base yarn which is made of 75% extrafine Suerwash merino, 15% Nylon and 10% Silver Stellina. The extrafine merino gives an extra soft touch and it is super light and squishy. A little nylon is added for extra durabilty and 10% silver stellina for lots of sparkle.
This yarn is so versatile and can be used for any next to skin project (scarves, cardigan, shawls, jumpers etc).
The yarn is hand painted by me, and no one skein is the same.

Care Instructions
Gentle hand wash in cold water and dry flat under shade. Due to the nature of the dye, some bleeding may occur. Wash dark colors separately.
Each skein is unique. While they may be hand dyed in the same lot, the tones may vary from one skein to another.
As with all hand dyed yarns, I would recommend that you use two skeins at a time, alternating from every couple of rows/ rounds (unless it is a one-skein project).
All fibres are hand washed, but due to the nature of the dye, some bleeding may occur. Recommended hand washing separately and lay flat to dry.
