Shimmer Fingering · Evening Heather

The light on the hills above the bay, late in the season, when the heather is past its peak and the colour has deepened into something between bloom and dusk. Not bright. Settled. The particular violet of the hour before dark, when the sky still holds colour but the day has already let go.

Evening Heather holds both. Neither cool nor warm, it carries the blue of the sky and the red of the earth. Somewhere between treeline and tide.

On Shimmer Fingering, a thread of silver Stellina runs through the merino and cashmere, catching light within the violet. Cool meeting cool. The shimmer does not announce itself – it surfaces quietly, the way stars do, one at a time, until suddenly the whole thing is luminous.

Shimmer Fingering is a blend of 80% superwash merino, 10% extra soft cashmere, and 10% silver Stellina, spun to a fingering weight. The Stellina thread is woven through the yarn rather than sitting on the surface, giving a shimmer that is subtle and internal rather than decorative. The cashmere softens the hand; the merino provides structure and bounce. A yarn for occasions, and for the everyday moments that deserve to feel like one.

Dyed in small batches in Nanoose Bay, British Columbia, using acid dyes on protein fibre. Each skein is individually hand-dyed. Tonal variation between skeins is natural and part of what makes each piece unique.
