This lot is sold through. We’ll post if more comes in.
A single hand-dyed merino skein in deep grape / aubergine, shot through with quiet stellina sparkle — the metallic glint catches in daylight along the twist, then disappears again under lamp light. The strand is a heavy lace / light fingering weight, the colour tonal rather than variegated: a saturated cool purple with subtle plum shifts where the dye sat in the bath.
This listing is for the single skein pictured — one anonymous indie skein 3.5 oz with no band, no maker mark, rescued from a destash. Yardage is likely 400 yards plus.
About this skein
- Maker: anonymous indie dyer
- Fibre: merino base with stellina / metallic inclusions — exact blend percentage not verified
- Colour: deep grape / aubergine, semi-solid with subtle sparkle
- Weight class: heavy lace / light fingering (by gauge)
- Skeins available: 1
- Recommended needles: US 0–3 / 2.0–3.25 mm
- Care: hand-wash cool, lay flat to dry — treat conservatively, the stellina dislikes hot water
- Condition: destash, no band, no flaws noted
The dye work is careful and the sparkle is restrained — not the glitter-bomb kind, the kind that just makes the whole skein look faintly enchanted in indirect light. Lovely as the accent in a two-colour fingering shawl, or held with mohair for a halo on an evening cowl.
