Hickory - Exquisite 4-ply Yarn

About the colourway: Rich, warm and naturally grounded, Hickory is a deep woodland brown with gentle tonal variation that adds depth and interest. Inspired by aged wood and forest tones, it has a classic, earthy feel that’s both timeless and versatile. Perfect for everything from garments to accessories, this dependable shade works beautifully on its own or paired with brighter colours for contrast.

About the yarn base: Our Exquisite 4-ply yarn is all about indulgent softness and effortless luxury. Made from a beautiful blend of 70% Baby Alpaca, 20% Grade A Mulberry Silk and 10% Cashmere, it feels incredibly soft against the skin while offering gentle warmth and a delicate drape.

The addition of silk gives a subtle sheen, while the alpaca and cashmere create a light, airy halo that adds depth and softness to every stitch. It’s a non-superwash yarn that feels as good as it looks, perfect for projects you’ll want to wear again and again.

Whether you’re knitting garments, accessories or something a little special, Exquisite 4-ply brings together comfort, elegance and a truly luxurious finish.
