Mottled yarn shades

Shades that produce a knitted fabric with random, dappled colour effects.

For our mottled shades, liquid dye solution is applied to the yarn in a random way using dropper bottles, spray bottles or by pouring. Many of our mottled colourways are created by over-dyeing or pre-dyeing with a solid colour. These shades produce fabric with a dappled colour effect with little or no pooling, depending on how the dye has been applied.
