colour theory

Every colour in this triaxial blend has a strong relationship to its neighbour. Each colour is comprised of the same three dyes in different proportions. If you were to imagine a topographical map of one of the dyes across the triangle, it isn't a straight gradient, but a complex terrain, dipping and rising in different parts, according to how my eye perceives it. It's the result of years of painstaking work, meticulously measuring out dye to the milligram.

These are the rich, dark colours of autumn: gold, flame, spruce, plum, grey, rust... Sitting in front of a wood fire, coffee and biscuits to hand, working with the softest yarn... Heaven! As you work with them, watch how colours slowly morph into their opposite. Which colour is your favourite?

This heavy lace-weight cashmere is certified organic, traceable and sustainable. The quality is incredible, you feel like you're working with butter.
