Purple Sea Urchin is a variegated purple, violet and green with hints of hot pink and beige.

Spinifex

  • 50% non-superwash baby alpaca, 25% silk, 25% linen
  • 100g/400m/438yd
  • Hand wash only. This yarn may felt if washed in hot water and/or agitated. Air dry flat in shade

The baby alpaca in this yarn lends softness and a little warmth, while the silk and linen provide a coolness suitable for summer wear. The alpaca and silk take up the dye beautifully but the linen does not, lending a soft rustic look to this yarn. None of the fibres have any elasticity, so expect pure drape, perfect for shawls and oversize tops.

Hand dyed yarn is a work of art - no two skeins are the same. We recommend that you order enough yarn to complete your project, and that you alternate skeins every couple of rows to avoid obvious colour differences.

    Awesome yarn by Dyedbyhandyarns

    Just a beautiful flow of colours by the dyer. Soft feel to the yarn and knits up lovely. Not used for a crochet project just yet……
