It starts with the sky — deep, unapologetic cobalt stretching wide and endless. Then the sun breaks through, spilling molten citrus across the horizon, sharp and golden and impossible to ignore. Between them, a soft wash of pale light lingers, like the quiet breath before the heat takes over.
Cobalt & Citrus is contrast in motion — cool ocean depths colliding with blazing marigold, electric and alive. It feels like late summer afternoons, salt on your skin, sunlight in your eyes, and the kind of bold color that refuses to fade into the background.
Bright. Confident. A little reckless.
Hand dyed in small batches, each skein shifts from cool to heat with natural variation — no two horizons ever exactly the same.
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.
