Sylvan DK Yarn
Neutral tone Screens vary. Moonflower reads neutral in person.
One of our softest and most popular yarns — spun with cashmere for a luxurious feel.
Our Sylvan yarn is ultra-magnificent. This 3-ply, DK weight yarn is perfect for knitting heirloom-quality sweaters, delicate shawls, and lightweight cardigans. The cool gray color is natural (undyed) and the absolute perfect neutral. It pairs beautifully with any color.

Dye Lots
As with any hand-dyed yarn, slight variations between batches are normal. If you order more than one skein of a color, we'll send skeins from the same dye lot. For larger projects, we recommend alternating skeins every few rows.
Notes
Sylvan has little elasticity, so garments will relax with wear. Block and hang your swatch before measuring gauge. For longer-lasting garments, we recommend holding it with mohair to reduce pilling. Not recommended for socks. Hand wash cool and dry flat.
Made with Camellia
I bought several skeins of Sylvan DK at Flock and it has been an absolute dream to work with. I even needed a couple extra after the festival and you were so kind and willing to make that happen. The new skeins are from a different dye lot but are nearly identical to the others. The consistency in color is incredible and I can't wait to purchase more yarn from you!
I have made several items with Camellia's yarn and have been happy every time, best quality.
Your yarn is some of the best yarn I have ever used. I have made 10 sweaters with lots of your bases and will definitely be making more sweaters with your yarn! Your bases are perfect and colors are timeless.
I loveee Camellia Fiber Company. I've now knit three sweaters - and they are my absolute favorites! The quality of the yarn is unmatched - very little pilling, provides the necessary structure and consistency in colors! Recently tried Serene DK and just love the structure of this yarn! Hard to find great, drapery, vibrant NSW yarn and this will be my go-to moving forward. Looking forward to purchasing more!
I have looooved everything single yarn base of yours that I have tried, and I have used a lot of them. The way you use the color makes it feel like a neutral quite often and I love that! It allows the FOs to more easily mix and match with each other and with other clothes as well!
Your yarn is my absolute favorite! Every base I've ordered has been wonderful and the colors are always beautiful. I love your seasonal colors and always make sure to order at least one skein!
I love the quality, softness, and color consistency of all the Camellia Fiber yarns.
I absolutely love your yarn! I'm about 70% done with the Weekender in Magic Sprinkles and the speckles are so crisp and the yarn is so soft.
I love every single base I've used and the colors are always on point. The dyes are so consistent that even the unevenly dyed sets I've bought on sale are workable in sweaters without much yarn management.
The CFC Organic Merino Sport is my FAVORITE yarn. So soft and squishy but still maintains shape.
