Some yarns are simply a pleasure to hold. Sirdar's Cashmere, Merino and Silk is one of them — a beautifully balanced 8 ply blend of 75% extra fine Merino, 20% silk, and 5% cashmere that feels as good in the hand as it does on the needles. The Merino provides the structure and elasticity that makes it a reliable knit, the silk adds a subtle lustre and a fluid drape, and the cashmere — even in small measure — lifts the whole blend into something genuinely special. Soft, smooth, and with a quiet sheen that catches the light, this is a yarn that rewards the time you put into a project.
Inspired by the palette of a grand English country estate, the colourway names tell the story: Regency Blue, Downton Violet, Riding Red, Mother of Pearl, Society Pink, Orient Blue, and more. These are grown-up, considered shades — neither garish nor dull — that work beautifully for sophisticated womenswear, accessories, and anything where the colour is as important as the fibre. With 21 colourways to choose from, there's a shade for every project and every wardrobe.
At 116 metres per 50 g ball, it's well-suited to garments, cardigans, wraps, and accessories where a premium yarn makes all the difference in the finished result.
