Purple January Yakrino

Exclusive Limited Edition: One-of-a-Kind Dye Lot

Only 4 skeins available. Once they’re gone, they’re gone forever.

Indulge in this luxurious lace-weight treasure: a rare, hand-dyed tonal purple that dances between soft lilac whispers, rich amethyst depths, and mysterious blue undertones. The color shifts gently in the light, creating a mesmerising, almost magical depth that looks different from every angle; subtle, sophisticated, and utterly addictive.

Fiber content

51% Tibetan yak, 49% extrafine merino (non-superwash)

This yarn is woolen-spun, giving it a fluffy, airy halo and warmth, along with a rustic, textured hand rather than a sleek or smooth one. Being non-superwash, it has some natural tooth straight off the skein, and blooms and softens further with washing, blocking, and wear. The merino brings gentle structure and good memory for lace patterns, while the yak adds depth and warmth.
