Local folklore speaks of Dickman the smuggler, who ran out of luck in this cove. High above the water, there is the Piper’s Cave. Legend says a piper and his wife entered the cave while on their way home drunk from an Auchmithie wedding. Neither were seen again, but it is said the piper still plays a mournful tune which can be heard by those who venture up here on stormy nights.
75% Superwash Merino 27 micron
25% Nylon
225m/246yards/100g
A bouncy, durable but still soft all round sock yarn. This one has a bit more of a traditional lambswool handle but is still suitable for next to skin wear. A perennial favourite, it takes colour well and gives crisp stitch and speckle definition.
All our yarns are responsibly sourced from farms where Mulesing is not practiced. Superwash yarns are produced to ISO14001 accreditation or equivalent practices.
In the studio, we use minimal resources, recycle soak and dye water where we can and try to source sustainable and recyclable packaging for your yarn wherever practical to do so.
All my yarns are dyed to exhaust in the dyebath and thoroughly rinsed. Some shades, particularly hot pinks and blues, can release a little bit of colour when wet. Always swatch for colourfastness before committing to knit two different yarns together to avoid surprises.
