The old stories say the Cailleach shaped Scotland’s hills and glens. Every winter she washes her great plaid in the Corryvreckan whirlpool, and when she lifts it out, the land turns white.
This is the season of old stories.
We invite you to go inwards with them. To slow down. To cherish the long nights. To light a candle, pick up your needles, and maybe even journal.
One mystery colourway, dyed in the Cailleach’s honour.
Limited availability. If you’re not on our newsletter yet, now is a good time to join.
Each skein is hand-dyed in small batches and variations between skeins should be expected. We dye and store all of our yarn in our smoke-free and pet-free studio. Due to the individual nature of hand-dyed yarn, we would always recommend alternating skeins.
Animal fibres absorb dye differently depending on their structure. Some bases produce richer, deeper tones, while others create softer or more subtle colour effects. Blends that include reinforcing fibres such as nylon may show higher contrast or more defined speckling. Non-superwash bases often display more nuanced, painterly colour variation.
The skeins has been photographed in natural light to give you the best representation of colour, but please be aware that screens and monitors can differ slightly. We cannot guarantee that your device's display of any colour will be accurate.
High quality acid dyes are properly set before washing and rinsing twice to assure the colour adheres correctly, however some bright or extreme colours may bleed slightly in the first wash.
