Superfine Merino Fingering · Marine Layer
The fog rolls in off the water, no announcement. Sound softens, then edges, then distance itself. The world contracts. To walk in the fog transports you to elsewhere. Shapes drift, in and out. Light arrives from no particular direction. The world retreats behind a curtain, the exhalation of the sea.
Marine Layer is that feeling.
Cool and damp, the colour of the in-between. Where the sea exhales, where the sky descends into water, where the horizon was. Not empty. Everything, but silenced.
On Superfine Fingering, Marine Layer arrives clean and even. The grey sits at the surface, undisturbed – the fine merino giving it a natural loft and softness that suits the quietness of the colour. Still. Unhurried. The colour of fog before it moves.
Superfine Fingering is 100% superwash 17-micron merino, spun to a fingering weight. At 17 microns this is among the finest merino available, with a softness and loft that sets it apart from standard merino bases. The characteristic bounce and resilience of the fine merino give it energy in the hand and excellent stitch definition on the needle.
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.

Machine washable on a gentle wool cycle, or hand wash in cool water. Lay flat to dry, away from direct sunlight.
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.
