The classic hand dyed Gradient yarn collection is back!

The Gradients are sets of 5 skeins forming an ombre fade.

Gradients are among the first colors I dyed a few years back, and they have a special place in my heart. I wanted to see how the colors looked in different color concentrations, and well, they looked gorgeous, and quickly they became the foundation of my hand dyed yarns.

Gradients never pass, they are like that favourite neutral to which you'll come back over the years, that you can pair to anything, and with any color, and that you can’t stop loving.

Recently, the dye brand that I used to dye my yarns for almost 10 years now, updated their dye formulation, and so some colors have changed. I've since tried to recreate my old colorways, and while some turned almost exact the same, some others just don't. Caffèlatte, the colorways used in my Morning Coffee socks is one of these.

While I was trying to find the right shades, I came up with a few more browns which are now in stock and will work as good as Caffèlatte, or actually any other gradient colourway, for a beautiful pair of Morning coffee socks.
