Lanecardate – Canberra | Storm Indigo

This ultra-fine yarn offers an elegant matte finish, subtle bloom after washing, and a tender warmth that feels like a gentle hug against the skin. With its high yardage and smooth texture, Canberra is a perfect match for elevated basics, heirloom babywear, and sophisticated lightweight layers.
