A colourway with a thousand caveats.

Aquatic is a tonal minty teal hand-dyed yarn with specks of deep golden brown. Teal is a colour that is a mix between green and blue and is nearly impossible to capture accurately on screen. I've added a swatch of a colour that's as close as I can get to how the colour looks on the yarn. If you're using a laptop to view this yarn, the swatch might be a better representation. If you're using your phone, the swatch may not be as helpful. PLEASE keep in mind that there is a small element of surprise with the colour teal, so I'm doing my best to prepare you. Think menthol, mint, and mermaids. I have a better chance of capturing a mermaid smoking a menthol cigarette than getting this colour to display correctly.

This is the good stuff! If you want a non-superwash and nylon-free sock yarn, try this high twist Corriedale yarn. It's robust and surprisingly soft. Knit with a tight gauge using 2mm - 2.25mm needles for a strong pair of socks. 

It's also a great yarn to use alongside your handspun yarn.

I recommend you hand wash your finished projects in cool or lukewarm water and lay them flat to dry. This is an untreated, non-superwash yarn and should not be placed in the washing machine or washed in hot water as it will felt.

These have been photographed indoors in my workshop. Colours may vary slightly under different lighting conditions. I have done my best to capture the colours as accurately as possible. Some colours are notoriously difficult to represent correctly on the screen - teals and blue/greens are the worst offenders with the results looking either blue or just green.
