Barbie’s Swim is a bold and playful variegated colourway that brings a striking mix of vibrancy and contrast. At its heart is a fluorescent pink that glows with high-energy brilliance, instantly catching the eye. This intense shade is reminiscent of retro swimwear and sun-drenched beach days, radiating fun and confidence.
Teamed with this electric pink are flashes of teal, adding a cool and refreshing balance. The teal evokes tropical waters, a perfect counterpoint to the warmth of the pink, creating a dynamic interplay of colour. Scattered throughout the skein are touches of lavender, introducing a soft, dreamy element that tempers the brightness and adds a touch of depth. The lavender shifts between subtle and striking, depending on the light and the way the yarn is worked up.
As a variegated colourway, Barbie’s Swim will create unique and unpredictable patterns in knitting or crochet, making each project one-of-a-kind. Whether used for statement socks, bold accessories, or fun summer garments, this yarn is sure to stand out. It’s a celebration of colour, movement, and creativity—perfect for those who love fearless, joyful hues that bring a splash of fun to their craft.
Weight & Length
4 ply, sock or fingering yarn. 100 gms gives you 400 metres
Fibre
Darjeeling yarn: 85% Merino, 15% Nylon
Beautifully soft and just the right amount of nylon for a pair of socks. This also makes a gorgeous shawl or other wearable object.
It is recommended that you hand wash in cool to luke warm water with a wool wash to prevent dissociating. Slight bleeding may occur but should not effect the final colour. The merino is superwash but the dyes are not. (However, I'm not hand washing my socks so there!)
