Scheepjes Big Darling 437 Eggplant
In addition to the well-known Monochrome cakes, Scheepjes Big Darling is now also available in beautiful solid colors. This soft chenille yarn is lightweight and feels wonderful to the touch, making it perfect for cozy Home Accessories, eye-catching creations, and oversized Amigurumi.
The solid colors blend seamlessly with the color palette of the thinner Little Darling yarn. This makes it easy to enlarge existing patterns and adapt them to a larger size.
Three shades—Froggy (407), Peacock (426), and Pickle (420)—share the same names and color numbers as the core shades of the Big Darling Monochrome cakes. They’re ideal for extending color gradients or adding a perfectly matching border or accent.
