NSW Merino DK 100g Far From the Shallow

The depth and intensity of Lady Gaga’s performance in A Star Is Born resonates with these ocean-deep blues. Is this the “something else you’re searchin’ for?” For solid colour pairings try Airforce, Silver Fox, Orchid Blush or Saffron.
Since our colours are hand dyed in small batches there is variation between batches, and even within a batch. We have a process and ingredients for each colour recipe, but can’t control how the colours “land” each time. If you’re looking for a sweater quantity please let us know and we will dye up a batch specially for you.

Good to Know
This yarn weighs slightly less than our standard Merino DK, but it’s loftier, so appears thicker. Non-superwash wool absorbs dye a little differently from superwash yarns, so expect colours that are slightly muted compared to the rest of our range. For best colour results we recommend working with two different balls/skeins and alternating every round/every second row.

Tips for Felting
Machine wash intentionally to felt projects like slippers, bags, or coasters. We’re big fans of the Sailor Slippers if you’re looking for a place to start. Wash your knitted piece in the washing machine on a standard length, 30°C cycle. We recommend knitting a swatch and measuring it before and after so you can calculate the shrinkage rate for your specific machine and cycle.
