Vixen - Hand Dyed Silky 4-ply Yarn

About the colourway: Vixen is a rich and fiery blend of russet orange, burnished copper and warm red, with subtle tonal shifts that bring depth and movement to every skein. Inspired by the beautiful coat of a red fox, this striking colourway is warm, mischievous and full of character.

Perfect for adding an earthy glow to autumnal projects, Vixen also works beautifully throughout the year. Pair it with warm neutrals, deep greens and golden shades, or let its vibrant copper tones take centre stage.

About the yarn base: Our Silky 4 Ply yarn is a beautifully refined blend of 75% ultrafine superwash merino and 25% mulberry silk, combining softness, strength and elegant drape. Smooth and lightweight with a subtle sheen, this fingering weight yarn creates fabric with excellent stitch definition and a luxurious finish.

The addition of silk enhances the yarn’s strength while adding a gentle lustre, allowing stitches to hold their shape beautifully, even in more open or lacey projects. The worsted-spun construction from long staple fibres ensures clean, defined stitches, making this yarn a joy to work with.

Whether you're knitting socks, shawls or lightweight garments, Silky 4 Ply offers the perfect balance of softness, durability and drape, making it ideal for both everyday and special projects.
