    4 items left
    • Get inspired with Artyarns Inspirations!

      These are Limited Edition colours in some of our favourite Artyarns bases: Merino Cloud, Double Mohair, and ultra-lux Cashmere Ombré 2 ply!

      Every purchase includes exclusive patterns designed to bring out the yarn colours. Once a colour sells out it’s retired and will never be repeated.

      For September 2023, "Peak Season" is a mix of greens both neon and conventional as well as a cheeky pop of orange and red speckles, evocative of changing leaves.  Skeins are lovingly dyed in Artyarns' unique ombre style, by artisans with brushes.

      Read more about each of the yarns and their characteristics here:
      Merino Cloud (we recommend contrast colours N4A Citric Aceeeed and 915 Ruby Port as contrasts, if you'd like them)
      Double Mohair

      Silky Twist
      Silk Day Dream

      Care:
      We recommend hand washing non-superwash, hand-dyed yarns.

      Although Artyarns are very consistent with their colourways, all hand-painted skeins are unique. If your project uses more than one skein, you may want to alternate / stripe the skeins.

      Block / wash in lukewarm water with some wool wash, and lay flat to dry. Artyarns set their dyes with steaming and thoroughly rinsing but differing water temperatures and chemicals can cause some dye to bleed in any yarn.

      If you're pairing light and dark colours, we recommend washing your swatch first to test for colour-fastness.
