Superfine Merino DK · Wind Over Water
The particular grey-green of sage at the water’s edge, when the light is soft and the tide is coming in. Not quite grey, not quite green. The colour of the air before rain on the Salish Sea.
Wind Over Water is that stillness.
On Superfine Merino DK, the clean neutral base delivers Wind Over Water as a bold, grounded sage. At DK weight the colour has body and presence, suited to garments and accessories where the colour carries the piece.
Superfine Merino DK is 100% superwash 17-micron merino, spun to a DK weight. At 17 microns this is one of the finest merino grades available, with a characteristic bounce and loft that gives the skein a natural fullness even at a heavier weight. The neutral base allows colour to read at full saturation with strong stitch definition. A confident, wearable yarn.
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.

Each skein is hand-dyed in small batches, so subtle variations in colour and saturation are part of the character of these yarns. For larger projects, we recommend purchasing skeins from the same dye lot where possible, noted on the label, or alternating between lots as you work for the most even result.
