Fibre Co - Transitions - Auroral Flux

Transitions shifts between hues like nature's most enchanting moments—dawn breaking over mountains, dusk settling on water, or auroras dancing across night skies. Watch your creations transform, capturing the ephemeral beauty of a world in constant, gentle change.

Perfect for: Simple stitch patterns like stockinette or garter stitch, open stitches like eyelets, slip stitch colorwork with coordinating solid shade yarns.

This sport-weight color-changing yarn creates a fabric with a subtle halo that reveals shifting color segments, with the pattern's width determining how dramatically the transitions appear in your finished piece.

Transitions features a carefully balanced 50/50 blend of alpaca and Peruvian Highland wool designed for the perfect combination of softness and structure.

Alpaca fibre’s smooth surface and semi-hollow core provide warmth, luxurious softness, and elegant drape. With fewer scales than sheep’s wool, it reflects more light—enhancing color depth and vibrancy.

Peruvian Highland wool adds strength and resilience, helping finished pieces maintain their shape and resist wear. This robust fibre also lends elasticity and "memory," supporting the yarn’s shape retention and dimensional integrity.

Transitions offers an exceptionally soft and comfortable knitting experience, with gentle give and bounce that’s forgiving on the needles. Stitches soften after blocking, resulting in a relaxed, organic fabric that beautifully showcases the color transitions.

This yarn is best suited for plain or open stitches, with color shifts varying based on project width or circumference. Wider sections reveal more pronounced vertical contrasts, while narrower areas produce subtler transitions.

Transitions pairs beautifully with coordinating solid yarns in slip-stitch patterns for controlled effects, or can be used on its own to showcase a natural, dynamic interplay of color.
