The Seventies Issue

SHAG CARPET

A Classic Burnt Orange — Equal Parts Sass and Sincerity

This rooted, warm orange leans earthy and nostalgic. It’s the colour of orange soda, cigarette smoke at sunset, and the best kind of over-decorated den. Shag Carpet is cozy, grounded, and unmistakably from another era — in the best way.

 

Hand-dyed on our bestselling Natural Fingering yarn base:


Spun from 100% organic Merino wool, this non-superwash fingering-weight yarn is wonderfully soft, with a smooth 4-ply structure that delivers beautiful stitch definition. This makes it an excellent choice for colourwork, lace, and textured stitches. Lightweight yet warm, it offers 400 metres per skein and can be held double to achieve a DK weight, giving you flexibility across a wide range of projects. Milled in Peru, this yarn highlights the natural beauty and performance of Merino wool.

Care

We recommend gentle hand-washing with a mild wool wash (Eucalan is our favourite!) and laying flat to dry. Avoid excessive agitation and heat (unless you're felting intentionally!). Thoughtful care and proper storage will help preserve the beauty and longevity of your yarn and finished pieces.

Hand-Dyed Yarn Tips

To keep your yarn looking its best, store it out of direct sunlight as prolonged exposure can cause sun bleaching and fade the colours.

While all yarn is washed in our studio after dyeing, some colour bleeding may still occur. Swatching and blocking with a gentle wool wash is recommended, especially for colourwork projects. If needed, pre-washing yarn or blocking finished garments in cold water with a splash of vinegar can help reduce any colour bleeding.

Hand-dyed yarns vary naturally from skein to skein. To create a more even fabric and avoid pooling, we recommend alternating skeins throughout your project.
