We’re now offering full, six-skein sets of our stunning Knit by Numbers gradients in DK, 4ply and minis! Let your mind run wild with all the ombre project possibilities…
Each hue of our Knit by Numbers is available in six different shades from dark to light, this makes the yarn perfect for gradient projects. We’ve put together some packs of full gradient sets for you, with a fab project bag for you to keep it safe!
Knit by Numbers is a blend of 50% Falklands Merino and 50% British Bluefaced Leicester. As BFL is the absolute softest of British breeds, added to sumptuous Falklands Merino, this scrumptious base is still soft enough to wear next to the skin (even in the most delicate areas), but also adds lustre and drape – it is perfect for so many projects.
- 4ply skeins are 400m per 100g / 100m per 25g mini skein
- DK skeins are 233m per 100g / 58m per 25g mini skein

More Info
Knit By Numbers is unique in that each shade is created by blending a pre-dyed fibre top colour with specific varying percentages of white. This means that each of our 19 colour families in Knit by Numbers starts off in its most saturated, bright form. Then we add more and more white fibre to the blend, which gives us 5 more tones, creating a beautiful 6 colour gradient from dark to light. Gorgeous, and perfect for those ombre, or gradient projects that are oh so popular.
The Fibre Blend
Knit by Numbers is a 50-50 blend of sumptuous Falklands Merino and British Bluefaced Leicester. Knit by Numbers started life as a 100% Merino product, but as we are passionate about trying to use as much UK-grown fibre as possible (both to lower transport emissions and support our local wool-growing industry), we decided to add 50% Bluefaced Leicester to the mix. BFL is the absolute softest of British breeds, so this scrumptious base is still soft enough to wear next to the skin (even in the most delicate areas), but it also adds lustre and drape.
