On the shelf
1 skein of Dapple. When it's gone, it's gone.
SKEIN (Australia) Top Draw Socks in *Dapple* — a deep-forest variegated of dark moss green, rust-orange, brick-red, almost-black plum, with sudden flashes of bright lime cutting through. Reads like dappled woodland sun on autumn leaves: busy from across the room, surprisingly sophisticated up close. The lime is the move — without it the colourway sits too dark, with it the whole skein sparkles.
This listing is for 1 skein of SKEIN Yarn (Australia) Top Draw Socks in color Dapple.
About the yarn:
Same Top Draw Socks base as the *Herman* skein — 85% superwash merino, 15% nylon, 437 yards / 100 g, 4-plied round into a smooth canvas that holds dye evenly and survives the washing machine on wool cycle. At this yardage it's a comfortable pair of adult fingering-weight socks where the colour cycles slowly through the foot, a hat or fingerless mitt in stockinette where the variegation does the work without any patterning competing with it, or paired against a deep moss / forest green solid as the painted half of a colourwork yoke.

About SKEIN Yarn (Australia) Top Draw Socks:
SKEIN is an active Australian indie dye studio (skeinyarn.com), best known for clean hand-painted colourways on a small selection of tested sock and shawl bases. Top Draw Socks is the studio's flagship sock base; the dye approach is multi-colour painting where every shade in the palette is chosen against the others, with a few colours surfacing as occasional bright flashes rather than constant noise.
Bands are signed with a hand-painted heart tag plus a printed base/colourway label. *Dapple* is one of the studio's deep autumnal multis — a darker companion piece to the brighter garden colourways.
