Samite Silk DK, Blacker Yarns

To make this woollen spun yarn we blended smooth drapey Blue-Faced Leicester, with the bouncy froth of Shetland and the guilt-free luxurious recycled silk. This combination of pale and dark fibres creates a yarn with glorious depth of colour and delicate nepps of silk. Because it is woollen spun, Samite retains the characteristic bounce of Shetland, and is more durable than the standard silk blend, marking it ideal for colourwork, cables and texture.

The full colour palette was inspired by characters from the Arthurian Legend.

Colour: Brown

This is a deep, comforting shade of brown, reminiscent of rich cocoa, dark espresso, or roasted coffee beans. It has a warm, earthy depth with subtle cool undertones that give the knitted fabric a grounded, organic feel, perfect for a cozy, timeless winter accessory.
