Superfine Merino Fingering · Old Growth
New growth at the edge of old forest. The particular yellow-green of cedar in early light, when the canopy is backlit and the light seems to come from within. Alive. Ancient.
Old Growth is that green.
Not dark. Not quiet. A colour with genuine presence, that reads differently in every light you carry it into. Forest floor and canopy, all at once.
On Superfine Fingering, Old Growth arrives. Bold tonal variation. Bright areas luminous and yellow, darker areas settled to olive. The dye moves across the fine twist. Vivid. Warm. Restless.
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.

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.
