23rd December 2024 - The shop is now open as normal. Sadly, due to the new European GPSR regulations, at present, I cannot send items to the EU or Northern Ireland. Any orders placed will be fully refunded. I am hoping to find a 'work around' for this issue. As soon as a way forward is found, I look forward to trading with my lovely customers in the EU again.

Dispatch times at present will be approximately 4-5 weeks

UK shipping will be sent via Royal Mail (either first class or tracked 48) and all international orders will be sent using a tracked method. Once your item is shipped I will send you an email with your tracking information. Please note  - for some of the dispatch messages that I have sent from the shop email address have been delivered to spam/junk folders - so please check these folders to check for replies and tracking information.

 

Summer Idyll - 100g

£20.00

This gradient inspiration photo makes me think of those long, hot summer days during summer holidays past. When it felt like September, and school, were a whole lifetime away.

I would walk through the fields and back lanes, hands brushing the long grass stems topped with seeds. The family dog trotting in front, on our way to the beck (actually the river Derwent). He would stand in the river, impatiently waiting for sticks to be thrown.

After a while of stick throwing I might sit in the field, looking for 4 leafed clovers and wishing that I had a Famous Five picnic basket full of food and ‘lashings of ginger beer’. It has been so difficult NOT to call this gradient ‘lashings of ginger beer’ – but I eventually settled on ‘Summer Idyll’

 The gradient is made from 21 micron merino in shades of green, yellow and orange. Blended with the merino I have added 25% natural fawn Shetland fibres which give the blend a much more open and fluffy texture.

The Shetland and merino fibres will felt. If you do not wish them to, hand wash in cool water.
