{pightle - east anglian origin; a small enclosed grass field near to the homestead}
Pightle is a smooth, soft, superwash merino yarn with medium twist that takes colour beautifully and allows us to explore all the dye techniques we love.
A ‘go-to’ yarn at 400m per 100g skein, it is perfect for sweaters, cardigans, shawls and accessories. The merino, sourced sustainably in South America and guaranteed mulesing-free, has been superwash treated for ease of care.
Our favourite 100% merino yarn base also comes in mini-skein form, dyed in our favourite regular shades, so you can mix and match, pair with full-size skeins, choose your favourites to fade between… the possibilities are endless!
We dye Pightle in small batches using a combination of kettle dyeing for semi-solid and tonal shades and low-immersion and hand-painting for variegated shades that will ‘pool’ or ‘flash’ depending on gauge. Even within a dye batch, each skein is unique as a result of our dyeing techniques.
Although Pightle is a superwash fibre, we recommend hand washing in cool water to preserve the vibrancy of the dye.
