Blossomfall Light - - 75/25 Merino/Nylon SW

from £18.00

🌸 🌼 💐 Blossomfall Light 🌸 🌼 💐

Blossomfall Light captures the soft fall of spring in bloom with a cheerful palette of pastel hues and gentle vibrant tones. This hand-dyed 75% superwash merino wool and 25% nylon 4-ply yarn offers the perfect balance of softness and durability, making it ideal for socks, accessories, and lightweight knitwear.

Blended to a classic 4-ply / fingering weight, this yarn provides excellent stitch definition, a smooth handle, and colour depth that enhances textured or lace patterns alike. The nylon element adds resilience and longevity — especially valuable in socks and frequently worn accessories — without compromising the comforting softness of merino.

Colour-way Inspiration

Blossomfall Light draws its name from the delicate drift of petals in a spring garden. Think blues, pinks, greens and soft golden accents falling like cherry blossoms and daffodils along quiet paths and sunlit woodlands — a colour-way that brings joyful warmth to your knitting projects.

Yarn Features & Benefits

  • Fibre Content: 75% superwash merino wool, 25% nylon — soft yet strong

  • Weight: 4-ply / sock / fingering weight

  • Hand-dyed in small batches — each skein is slightly unique, rich in tone and variation

  • Merino provides natural elasticity and comfort against the skin

  • Nylon adds durability and wear resistance, especially in socks and cuffs

Perfect Projects

Blossomfall Light is beautifully suited to:

  • Custom-made everyday socks with personality

  • Lace or textured shawls and wraps

  • Lightweight gloves or mitts

  • Delicate baby garments and accessories

For larger projects or using multiple skeins, alternating skeins every few rows helps blend natural dye variations evenly throughout your fabric.

Care Instructions

To keep your hand-dyed yarn looking its best:

  • Hand wash gently in cool to lukewarm water with a mild wool wash

  • Superwash fibres are more forgiving, but a delicate machine cycle (cold) inside a mesh bag can be used

  • Never wring — squeeze water out gently and lay flat to dry

  • Avoid hot water or direct heat sources to maintain shape and colour integrity

Packaging & Presentation

  • Choose your packaging: Eco‑Light compostable bags with a QR story link, or upgrade to a gift‑ready Story Box with a printed story card with thoughtful extras designed for a beautiful unboxing

  • Each skein arrives with a thoughtfully written explanation offering insight into the heritage and inspiration woven into the colour-way.

  • Bundles come with carefully curated extras that reflect the spirit and storytelling at the heart of Thistle Yarns.
