Paradise Tanager - Collector Colour

The third and final installation of our collector colour series inspired by the vibrant world of birds is PARADISE TANAGER. This brilliantly coloured tropical bird is native to the Amazon Rainforest and we were so inspired by it’s striking blue belly!

This month’s collector colour is on a KPPPM fingering weight Merino base and is a blend of speckled and stripes.

With a neutral background, the pops of electric blue, indigo, purple and black will blend beautifully into a fade of other variegated Koigu colours.
