Nuggle is a dark teal colourway with bright green and dark teal streaks.
A nuggle, njuggle, or neugle, is a mythical water horse of primarily Shetland folklore, where it is also referred to as a shoepultie or shoopiltee on some parts of the islands.
He is a nocturnal creature that is frequently associated with the rivers, streams and lochs of Shetland. He is easily recognised by his distinctive wheel-like tail and, unlike his evil counterparts, the each-uisge or the nuckelavee, has a fairly gentle disposition, being more prone to playing pranks and making mischief rather than having malicious intent.

Vespertine is a super soft yarn with a gorgeous heathered texture. The heathered look of the base lends depth and richness to colours and adds an additional sophisticated flair. The fine merino fibers are reinforced with nylon for additional durability. It creates a beautiful fabric without compromising the fibre strength and washability. The yarn is therefore great for knitting soft, comfy socks or any kind of garments or accessories.
Vespertine is a term used in the life sciences to indicate something of, relating to, or occurring in the evening. In botany, a vespertine flower is one that opens or blooms in the evening. In zoology, the term is used for a creature that becomes active at dusk, such as bats and owls. Vespertine behaviour is a special case of crepuscular behaviour; while crepuscular activity may resume during the dim hours of dawn, vespertine activity is limited to dusk and ceases during full darkness.

Essential Information for buying our Hand-Dyed Yarns
When purchasing hand-dyed yarn, we recommend buying enough for your entire project.
Our yarn is handmade in small batches. While we follow precise recipes for repeatable colorways and carefully measure our materials, slight variations between skeins are inevitable. No two skeins will ever be identical, as is the nature of handcrafted products.
We take new photos for each dye lot, so images on our website may differ from skeins you’ve purchased in previous batches.
For a more uniform appearance in knitting, crochet, or weaving, alternate skeins every few rows.
We ensure all dyes are fully exhausted before rinsing our yarn. However, mild color bleeding can still occur, especially with bright, dark, or speckled skeins. To prevent unexpected color transfer, rinse your skein in cold water with wool wash and let it dry before starting your project.
For detailed care instructions, please follow this link.
This listing is for one (1) skein of yarn unless stated otherwise. Photos of multiple skeins are for comparison purposes, showcasing differences between yarn bases and/or skeins.
Please note that colorways may appear slightly different due to display settings on your device. Especially keep this in mind if you are using apple devices, which are known to alter colours. While we optimize our photography for color accuracy, viewing images on a monitor provides the most reliable representation.
