The Plucky Knitter Primo Fingering, Olive Tonal — Superwash Merino / Cashmere / Nylon (MCN), 392yd / 4.1oz

The Plucky Knitter is Sarah Dimond's Michigan studio — one of the longest-running premium MCN dyers in the US indie scene, and a brand knitters chase club spots for. This skein is Plucky Primo Fingering in an unnamed olive-tonal — only the maker business card was on the tag, so the colourway is described from the strand itself. Full 115 g skein, identified by hand-feel and the Plucky card.

This listing is for 1 skein of The Plucky Knitter Primo Fingering in color Olive Tonal.

About the yarn:

Primo Fingering is Plucky's flagship MCN — 75% superwash merino, 20% cashmere, 5% nylon, 392 yards in a generous 115 g skein. It's the base Plucky built her reputation on: enough cashmere to read as luxury in the hand, enough nylon to hold up in actual wear, and a yardage generous enough for a full pair of socks or a deep cowl from a single skein. This colourway is unnamed on the tag — a deep olive/moss tonal, semi-solid with subtle warmer-gold pooling where the dye sat — the kind of complex neutral Plucky has always been known for. Gauge sits at 7–8 sts/inch on a US 1–3 (2.25–3.25 mm). Hand wash cold; lay flat to dry — the cashmere content earns a hand-wash.

About The Plucky Knitter Primo:

The Plucky Knitter is Sarah Dimond, dyeing yarn out of a small Michigan studio since 2009. The brand is best known for two things: a deep MCN-heavy base lineup (Primo Fingering, Primo Worsted, Trusty Sport, the Cashmere singles) and a club-driven release model where colourways drop in limited monthly themes that sell out within minutes of going live. Plucky is current — the shop and club are both still active in 2026.

This skein came to us with only the Plucky business card on the tie — the original band was lost before resale. The base is identified as Primo Fingering by hand-feel, the 115 g weight, and the Plucky business card on the tie; the colourway is unnamed, so what you're seeing on the photo is the working description rather than a Plucky-original colour name. Operator confirmed Plucky provenance against the original private-collection purchase.
