An untagged handspun super-bulky art-yarn skein in deep grape purple and undyed cream. Drafted long and spun thick-and-thin as a single, with ringlets of curly lock fluff worked into the surface so the skein reads as texture as much as colour. \

What you're seeing.

  • Deep grape-purple plied with bright cream/white — the two tones alternate as the single draft shifts
  • Curly lock fluff (looks like mohair or curly wool) catching on the surface of the ply
  • Thick-and-thin grist throughout — true handspun, not an industrial novelty

Fibre. Wool / wool blend with curly mohair-style locks on the surface. The hand reads as a soft mid-weight wool, not the scratchy end.

Specs.

  • Skein weight: ~3.5 oz / ~159 g 
  • Yardage: not measured — at this grist and weight, expect roughly 30–50 super-bulky yards
  • Weight class: super bulky, art yarn with locks
  • Construction: handspun single, thick-and-thin, locks on the surface
  • Colourway: deep grape purple + cream (unnamed)
  • Skeins available: 1 — one-of-one
  • Care: hand-wash cool, lay flat to dry. Gentle on the locks.

Lovely for: a small-loom weaving where the locks become surface features, the contrast band on a chunky cowl on US 13–15 needles, or worked into a wall-hanging where the purple-and-cream draws its own zone. ~3.5 oz of handspun super-bulky is enough yardage to carry a panel.

Condition. Excellent. Skein is clean, hand-tied, and intact. No spinner tag attached.
