About this Colorway
Don't Be Koi: Look into the aqua blue water and you'll see black and orange koi fish - this yarn does swimmingly well at evoking this peaceful pond.
This gradient is one of our Modernist colorways - essentially 'speckled stripes'. This dye technique was inspired by painters of the Modernism movement such as Henri Matisse, Marc Chagall, and Georgia O'Keeffe.
Notes about Knitcircus Yarns
Because of our unique dyeing process, many of our darker colors appear heathered, with small light spots sprinkled throughout. This heathering is normal. Our yarns are colored using professional-grade acid dyes. We’ve made every effort to photograph the color accurately, but appearance may vary depending on your monitor settings.
About our Yarn Bases
Greatest of Ease - fingering (80% superwash Merino/20% nylon) - 400 yards/100g. Great stitch definition, soft and springy. Our most popular base.
- Medium socks - A medium socks set has 2 identical cakes that total 75g/300yd of fingering weight yarn. This makes a crew sock for women's size 6-9. If you want larger socks or just longer cuffs, order a "large socks set". We recommend working toe-up socks whenever possible in order to use every last inch of your gradient yarn.
Breathtaking BFL - fingering (100% superwash Blue-faced Leicester wool) - 410 yards/100g. This lustrous, longwool breed boasts a wooly halo and is a favorite among knitters.
Parasol - fingering (70% non-superwash Merino / 30% Mulberry silk) - 440 yards/100g. With incredible shine and a soft twist, this yarn shows a subtler side to colorways it's dyed on.
Daring - DK weight (80% superwash Merino/10% cashmere/10% nylon) - 250 yds/100g. Succulent luxury blend.
