Viola & Rosa Antico – Sock Gradient Duo – Hand-dyed Yarn Set (10 Mini Skeins)

ORTENSIE IN FIORE,
COLORI CHE EVOLVONO,
I TONI SI SCALDANO.
(Hydrangeas in bloom, evolving colors, tones that warm up.)

Gradient Duo is the latest addition to The Gradient Collection. These eye-candy sets are composed of two of my signature gradients in perfectly curated colorways.

This specific duo pairs the sophisticated, dusty warmth of Rosa Antico with the deep, cool mystery of Viola, reminiscent of hydrangeas as they transition into muted, vintage shades. It is a balanced play of temperatures—where soft, desaturated pinks meet a muted purple, creating a harmonious yet distinct contrast. It’s an elegant and timeless palette, perfect for projects that seek a subtle, modern romanticism through a seamless transition of light and shadow.

The Set Composition: Each Duo contains 10 micro skeins (5 for each colorway) for a total of 100 grams. It’s like having a full skein of yarn, but broken down into a curated palette that sparks immediate creativity.

PROJECT INSPIRATION

If you love scrappy projects or controlled colorwork, you’ll love these. The Duo will work great for projects like:

• Sprocket Socks by Megan Nodecker.

• Leftover City by Kacey Herlihy.

• Stria by Andrea Mowry (ideal for delicate, faded stripes).

• A stunning addition to a Sweet Shop Blanket or a Memory Blanket.

• Fading or striping them into a simple, elegant pair of socks.

The sky—and your imagination—is the limit. I love creating sets that act as a playground for your needles ✨

THE STORY OF GRADIENTS Gradients were among the first colors I dyed a few years back. They began as an experiment to see how pigments behave in different concentrations and quickly became the foundation of my work. They are like a favorite neutral you return to year after year—versatile, reliable, and endlessly inspiring.
