Angel's Trumpet Gradient - 100g
£22.00
This soft, gentle colouway was designed for the Halloween Poisonous Plant Box. It is a blend of 2/3 merino and 1/3 Royal Baby Alpaca. Royal Baby Alpaca is now one of my favourite fibres, it has a long staple length, which has a slight shine….but is sooo amazingly soft! The long staple length of the Royal Baby Alpaca will make the blend easier to spin than merino alone, and will add extra warmth and drape to the finished yarn.
The stunning Angel’s trumpet plant is extremely toxic. Ingesting any part of the plant can cause seizures, intense hallucinations, paralysis, tachycardia and even death. It is claimed that even inhaling part of the plant can cause toxicity. The plant contains the alkaloids atropine, scopolamine, and hyoscyamine.
