H&D Mystic – Hand-Dyed Merino, Yak & Silk Fingering Weight Yarn

A little luxury, a little mystery, and a whole lot of creative possibility!

Meet Mystic by Harp & Dragon, our exclusive, hand-dyed fingering weight yarn, lovingly created by our very own in-house fiber artist, Reannon Dorning, right here at The Taming of the Ewe.

With its luxurious blend of 80% Superwash Merino Wool, 10% Yak, and 10% Mulberry Silk, Mystic brings together exceptional softness, beautiful drape, and just a hint of silk's natural sheen. The merino provides softness and elasticity, the yak adds a wonderfully plush feel, and the mulberry silk gives your finished projects an elegant finish.

Each generous 100-gram skein contains 437 yards of creative possibilities, making Mystic a beautiful choice for everything from delicate lace shawls to everyday accessories and lightweight garments.

What Will You Create with Mystic?

Whether you're a knitter or crocheter, Mystic is a versatile luxury fingering weight yarn that makes even the simplest stitches feel special.

Our favorite project ideas include:

• One-Skein Shawls & Scarves: With 437 yards per skein, Mystic is a lovely choice for many one-skein shawls, scarves, and delicate lace accessories. Check your pattern's yardage before casting on.
• Hand-Knit Socks: The superwash merino provides elasticity, while yak and silk contribute softness. Mystic is especially lovely for special-occasion socks and lighter-wear designs. For hard-wearing everyday socks, consider a yarn with nylon reinforcement.
• Lightweight Sweaters & Cardigans: Create beautifully draping garments that feel luxurious against your skin. Plan on multiple skeins and check your pattern's yardage requirements.
• Cowls & Fingerless Mitts: Perfect for smaller projects that showcase Mystic's rich hand-dyed colors and beautiful stitch definition.
• Colorwork & Lace Knitting: Let Reannon's thoughtfully created colorways bring personality to textured stitches, delicate lace, and simple stockinette designs.
