Parrot Lagoon ooak - silk and linen 2 ply - Anise 2

Parrot Lagoon is a dazzling, one-of-a-kind turquoise blue that bursts with energy. This vibrant shade captures the essence of tropical waters, offering an electric pop of colour that instantly commands attention. It’s a bright and lively hue, reminiscent of the brilliant feathers of a parrot, perfect for adding a bold statement to any project. Whether knitting or crocheting, this vivid turquoise will bring a sense of adventure and excitement to your creations.

Very slight tonal variation throughout the skeins - the heathered effect is due to the linen fibres not accepting the acid dyes but gives a wonderful soft effect to the dyeing... this also gives the yarn a slight halo.

Yarn Information 

Anise - I had looked for a 4 ply silk and linen yarn for a long time and after trialling one from Canada and not being pleased with the cost and the quality I had this new yarn milled especially for me from my usual silk mill in Switzerland. It has a beautiful sheen and light summer texture - perfect for summer tops and shawls. The two ply has been plied with itself to make the 4 ply.

Hand wash in luke warm water - some colour bleeding may occur but it should effect the main colour.
