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: Green

This is a dusty, atmospheric shade of green, leaning heavily into a muted sage, eucalyptus, or soft sea-glass hue. It has a cool, grey-green undertone that gives it an organic, heathered look, capturing that moody, understated charm ideal for earthy knitwear.
