Our Claypan gradient set is a swoonworthy swirl of pink and purple. Taking inspiration from the stunning painting Minyi Puru by Jakayu Biljabu, the artwork is a map of the artist's birthplace, with the circles representing Wantili Claypan.
The Sydney Harbour gradient set references the gorgeous colours of our beloved Sydney Harbour, from the deep blue-green of the sea to the creamy sands of the beaches fringing the water. Julia's inspiration image is Sydney Harbour from above, photographed by Ivan Delchev.
Dyed especially for our 7th birthday this April, these gorgeous gradient sets are limited edition, so make sure you grab your favourite (or get both) before they're gone.
Hand dyed in Dulwich Hill in Sydney, Australia on the country of the Bedigal, Wangal and Kameygal people of the Eora Nation.

About Skein Sisters Fabulous Sock
Fabulous Sock is a blend of 80% Australian extra fine superwash merino and 20% nylon. It's a plump and squishy sock yarn that is beautiful to use with a soft and smooth handle that glides through your hands. The Australian wool is 19.5 microns, which gives it the title of ‘extra fine merino’. It's soft enough to wear against your skin but not so soft that it's going to pill terribly.
With added nylon, Fabulous Sock is the best of all worlds. It's tough enough to make socks but it's also perfect for any other pattern that requires 4ply / sock or fingering weight yarn. Knitting, crochet and weaving, shawls, cardigans, jumpers, sweaters, scarves and accessories... you name it, it's perfect for them all.
Colours that delight, gorgeous to use and soft to wear, we know that Fabulous Sock is going to become your go-to sock yarn. We love it and we're sure that you will too!

About Skein Sisters Romance
Combining the softness of merino wool with the elegance and sophistication of silk, Romance is a beautiful single ply fingering weight yarn that will take your breath away. Plus, the colours are truly exquisite. As Maria, one of our staff exclaimed, “It's next level!”
With its irresistible feel, Romance offers a sensory experience for both knitters and wearers alike. The 80% extra fine superwash merino ensures a heavenly softness, making it a delight to work with, while the 20% silk adds a touch of opulence and a subtle shimmer to your creations.
What really sets Romance apart is the exquisite palette of colours, all dyed by hand at our studio in Dulwich Hill, just a few doors up from our shop. From soft pastels to rich jewel tones, each shade is carefully selected to create a sense of wonder.
