If you enjoy experiencing an explosion of colour while you
knit, then you’ll love Slika. The colour gradients in Slika yarn
are naturally hand-dyed, making each yarn cake unique - so
buy all you need in your desired dye lot to be sure of a fluid
colour effect. Spun from silk and soft merino wool, this yarn
is pure indulgence, and would make a stunning lace shawl.
Bowland 4ply is a beautiful, versatile yarn, which will be a
great choice for accessories, garments and light, luxury socks.
The knitted fabric feels soft and has a gentle halo, especially
after washing. Spun from Bluefaced Leicester wool, it has a
gentle sheen, and it creates fine and drapey knits. Bear in mind
each hand-dyed skein will be slightly different from the next.
