Midnight Fig (Wooly Mammoth)

Midnight Fig unfolds like a quiet indulgence at the edge of night. Deep plum and softened wine tones pool together, rich and velvety, with subtle shadows that hint at ripeness just past its peak. It feels like wandering through a twilight garden, fingers stained from stolen fruit, the air heavy with warmth and secrets.

Dyed in small hand batches, Midnight Fig carries natural variation and depth, making each skein feel intimate and intentional—perfect for pieces meant to be worn close, lingered over, and loved slowly.

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.
