A nearly black chocolate-plum with deep wine and aubergine undertones. On this airy mohair base, the color becomes even darker and smokier, with little flashes of plum appearing through the halo.

Use Nightshade alone for something gauzy and shadowy, or hold it with another yarn to add depth, softness, and a beautifully witchy haze.

ABOUT HAND-DYED YARN

Each skein is dyed by hand in very small batches, so variation between skeins is part of the process. Even skeins dyed together may differ slightly in depth or placement of color. For larger projects, alternating skeins every couple of rows can help blend those natural variations.

After dyeing, yarn is thoroughly rinsed, given a final soak with wool wash, spun out, and air-dried in my studio. Some residual dye release can occasionally occur, particularly with darker or more saturated colors.

CARE

Hand wash gently in cool water using a wool-safe wash. Avoid agitation and sudden temperature changes. Lay flat to dry.
