Item details

Part of our Halloween collection, this is a 100% merino handspun yarn, made from a range of sanguinarian reds to give it a delicious depth of vibrant colour, with an almost shimmering quality.

The yarn is closer to an Aran weight than a DK and is a soft and snuggly delight; giving you plenty of scope to knit or crochet something warm and lovely.

Weight: 50g approx
Length: 133m approx
No knots in the skein

This is a hand-spun yarn. Even though this yarn is is a fairly consistent spin there are occasional variations in thickness, small slubs and changes in the plying texture which are all part of the character and charm of a hand-spun yarn.

Hand wash only in lukewarm water, separate from lighter colours. Re-shape and dry flat.
