Bloom & Bramble Sparkle

from £19.00

💚 💜 ✨ Bloom & Bramble Sparkle 💚 💜 ✨

Highland light, thistle strength, pure shimmer.

Bloom & Bramble Sparkle reimagines the beloved Bloom & Bramble palette with a touch of enchantment — combining vivid hues of purple, teal and cool blues with a glimmering silver thread throughout. Hand-dyed in small batches by Thistle Yarns in Scotland, this sparkle mini skein captures the shifting light, depth and atmosphere of Highland lochs at dawn and dusk, with subtle shimmer that flickers like frost or autumn sunlight on moorland frost.

Perfect for adding sparkle and depth to your knitting or crochet projects, this blend dances between bold colour and delicate metallic sheen, elevating everything from socks and cowls to accessories and colourwork details.

🌟 Yarn Highlights

  • Fibre content: 75% Superwash Merino Wool, 20% Nylon, 5% Silver Stellina

  • Weight: Mini DK weight — great for accents, stripes and contrast details

  • Hand-dyed in Scotland with artisan care and nuanced tone shifts

  • Shimmering sparkles woven throughout — visually dynamic and fun to work with

Whether you’re knitting textured stitches, lacework, or adding contrast to a colour-work project, the sparkle twist elevates every stitch and keeps your piece lively and light-catching.

🧵 Suggested Projects

Bloom & Bramble Sparkle is ideal for:

  • Accent stripes or contrast panels in shawls and wraps

  • Sock details like heels, toes or cuff bands

  • Mittens, gloves or hats with subtle metallic interest

  • Colorwork highlights in larger garment pieces

  • Mini stash-busting projects and yarns that work beautifully as companions to larger skeins

Alternating mini skeins with main shade yarns creates seamless blends and can help integrate sparkle without overpowering your main colour palette.

Care Instructions

To maintain colour and fibre quality:

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

  • If machine washing, use a delicate wool cycle in a mesh bag (cool water only)

  • Avoid wringing - gently squeeze excess water

  • Lay flat to dry on a towel away from direct heat or sunlight

  • For garments, fold rather than hang to preserve shape and softness

The superwash merino base combined with nylon strength ensures this yarn is comfortable to wear and easy to care for, even with the added sparkle thread.

Packaging & Experience

  • 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.
