There is a place the light does not reach. Not shadow – shadow implies the sun was there, first. Below the canopy, where the light has never quite arrived. The forest floor in permanent dusk, rooted in time and place. Deep Hollow. Rich without warmth. Dark without emptiness. The colour of the secret heart of the forest, kept close, where something ancient has always lived. Cloud Lace is a blend of 42% baby alpaca, 35% silk, 13% merino, and 10% yak, spun to a fine lace weight. The baby alpaca gives this base its extraordinary characteristic halo, soft and diffused, almost atmospheric. The silk adds a subtle sheen and drape; the yak contributes depth and resilience beneath the surface. At lace weight the skein is light in the hand and generous in yardage, suited to delicate shawls and layering pieces. Dyed in small batches in Nanoose Bay, British Columbia, using acid dyes on protein fibre. Each skein is individually hand-dyed. Tonal variation between skeins is natural and part of what makes each piece unique. 42% Baby Alpaca / 35% Silk / 13% Merino / 10% Yak . 50g . 400m (437 yards) . Lace weight Lot 1.
