The street is still warm from the day.
Charcoal stretches wide and heavy like fresh pavement under midnight skies — matte, moody, unapologetic. Then it hits. A slash of neon pink. A streak of electric teal. Color thrown without permission, burning bright against the dark like rebellion in motion.
Asphalt & Acid is city noise and heartbeat bass. It’s sneakers on concrete, sirens in the distance, graffiti blooming where it “shouldn’t.” It’s grit meeting glow — softness wrapped around something loud.
Dark. Electric. Uncontained.
Hand dyed in small batches, each skein shifts between inky charcoal and flashes of neon — no two ever exactly alike, like street art that only exists once.
SPECIFICATIONS
- 80% Superwash Merino wool and 20% Nylon
- Approximately 1,900 yards
- Fingering Weight
This versatile 80/20 blend is the "gold standard" of fingering weight yarns, balancing the warmth and breathability of wool with the durability of nylon.
What can I make with this yarn?
- Durable Hand-Knit Socks: The 20% nylon content provides the necessary strength to prevent holes in the heels and toes, while the superwash wool ensures they stay soft and comfortable.
- Intricate Shawls & Wraps: With excellent stitch definition, this yarn is perfect for showing off complex lace patterns or delicate cables. It drapes beautifully after blocking.
- Lightweight Garments: Create breathable sweaters, cardigans, or camisoles that are perfect for layering. The fingering weight ensures your finished piece isn't too bulky.
- Baby & Children’s Wear: Because it is superwash (machine washable!), it is a practical choice for baby blankets, sweaters, and hats that need frequent cleaning.
- Accessories: This yarn is ideal for lightweight mittens, beanies, or elegant cowls that feel soft against the skin without being itchy.
Care Tip: While the superwash treatment allows for machine washing on a gentle cycle, we recommend laying your items flat to dry to preserve the vibrant color and shape for years to come.
