I saw a wonderful photograph whilst researching for a custom order. The award winning photograph by Ernie Black shows an octopus with its tenticles gently curved around its body, floating facing the camera. With shades of sand, aubergine, white, pale blue and mauve.

I made a set of rolags containing these shades using only Shetland and Corridale fibres. This means that the fibres are not as soft as merino, but they have a crispness and openness that will make them straight forward to spin -excellent for a beginner. You will receive 100g of rolags in the Underwater Stand Off colourway. All of the fibres in this blend will felt. If you do not wish them to, hand wash in cool water.
