SNEK
100% merino wool (superwash)

machine wash (gentle cycle)
SNEK is a soft merino wool, it has high twist and knits up very beautifully. It is actually on the border of sport and fingering weight, you could use it as both 🙂
The result of our very new dyeing technique are quick (repeat) gradients, a very special color transition. The colors transition faster than on our “normal” gradient yarns, but slower than on variegated yarns. The same colors are occurring more than just once. The length of the colors is not necessarily regular, but it may be so These are really unique pieces, no two are exactly the same, but you can easily continue one after the other, they fit good together.
We highly recommend it for projects for which a whole ball of our gradient yarn would be too much, but a variegated yarn would not give you the desired effect , e.g. for the yoke of sweaters, hats, or for other minor things. You can make very exciting things out of it!
Although they are hand dyed, the result of this kind of dyeing is very similar to marled or hand spun yarns.
