This yarn was inspired by the eerily beautiful moon jellies we have in the waters off the West Coast. 

The fading grey/blue/green colours were meant to capture the changing nature of their coastal habitat as a jelly moves deeper and away from shore. I couldn't resist adding a few little pops of yellowy-peach to the yarn as a nod to the moon jelly's subtle coloration. 

Originally part of our 2023 summer club, this colourway is designed to pair with the Moon Jelly Hat pattern (sold separately). A ribbed toque was a natural choice as their bodies are quite hat-like. Andrea Rangel added some design features to mimic their biology: ribbing for tentacles, and a small section of stranded colourwork to recreate the four distinctive circular structures at the top of their bells.
 
One 100g skein is all the yarn you need to make this hat.

Striping Patterns

 

Round Trip Designed with two matching halves—perfect for projects like socks, mittens, or sleeves where you want identical results. One 100 g skein of fingering weight is enough for an average-size pair of women's socks. For longer or wider socks, choose the 150 g size.

One-Way Trip A long, non-repeating color sequence. Great for hats, cowls, or scarves—ideal when you want a journey through color from start to finish. For a Musselburgh Hat, 100 g of Trifecta or MCN is enough for a size L hat but you will need 150 g if you'd like a wide, folded brim. 4-Ply has more yardage so 100 g is enough to make a folded brim. 

Shawl Yarn Specially dyed for top-down triangular shawls. Each stripe is the same width from beginning to end, with no ends to weave in. 100 g of fingering weight is enough for a small shawlette. 150 g gives a more generous size.

Sweater Yarn  Designed for garments like baby sweaters. The stripes appear only on the yoke, and the rest is a coordinating solid color—no switching yarns or breaking the flow.
