Pack an order of Logwood dyed purple yarn with me!

Oak (iron) is a deep, mineral grey born from the meeting of oak gall tannins and iron. It's tones are steady and organic, reminiscent of forged metal or shaded bark. This colourway is calm and timeless.

A little shelf of colour 🎨
All the beautiful natural colours in the studio feel like a rebellion to the Pantone colour of the year, and I don't know about you but I love it!
Rest assured we won't be leaning into the shades-of-beige trend at GWG.

This purple is created with Logwood chips, which when dry are an orange woody colour. You'd never guess this deep, rich purple would appear just by adding water. No chemicals required, it's amazing what nature can do!
