A dreamy blend of soft blush pinks, creamy ivories, and barely-there pastels, "Ballet Slipper" is like the first pirouette of spring. This colourway dances with light washes of peach and rose, anchored by subtle speckles of charcoal, neon yellow, lilac, and blue that give it a playful edge. It's sophisticated and airy, with that signature speckled flair Hedgehog Fibres is known for. The overall effect is whimsical and elegant — perfect for shawls, light sweaters, and accessories that crave a touch of soft-spoken luxury.

With a slight halo and extra warmth from Alpaca this DK weight superwash yarn is just dreamy! It is loftier and less dense than our Merino DK while maintaining the same bright and crisp colours. Wonderful for anything from sweaters to accessories!

Colours shift beautifully from one to another. Randomly dyed to prevent striping or pooling, as much as possible, our yarns create variegated effect that looks good in plain stockinette or advanced stitch motifs.

Gentle hand wash recommended. Approx. 100g/225m, 10% Alpaca, 90% Merino wool, superwash. Please note, although we take great care in photographing our yarns, colours may vary slightly from monitor to monitor.

Hand-dyed in small batches in Cork, Ireland. Dyelots may vary though we represent every dyelot as accurately as possible in the product photos. Colours may vary from skein to skein, even within the same dyelot. If you buy more than one, we will do our best to match them up. Please ensure you buy enough to finish your project as future dyelots may vary. Please note, although we take great care in photographing our yarns, colours may vary slightly from monitor to monitor.
