Hand dyed superwash merino, nylon and silver stellina DK.

Just like our other merino sparkle yarns, Silverdale DK is a blend of superwash merino for softness, nylon for durability and a strand of silver stellina giving a subtle sparkle. It’s smooth and squishy - just what you’d expect really, and is perfect for garments, shawls and pretty much anything else!

We recommend that you wash dark colours separately or wash a swatch before using dark and light colours together.

As with all hand dyed yarns, I would strongly advise that you use two skeins at a time, alternating from each one every couple of rows/rounds.
