APRIL DIAMOND - one of our birthstone yarns... similar to the facets on a diamond, these have a hint of lavender, a whisper of blue and a touch of silver.
YARN - Superwash Merino Wool Silk Pearlescent Fingering - (50:50) Smooth with a gorgeous gleam - A fingering weight version of our popular Pearlescent Worsted Weight!
Sure to be a favorite and loaded with yardage!
MERINO WOOL is ultra soft, creamy to the touch, cloud-like and breathes so you stay comfortable and cozy. We had these spun with a very fine merino wool so it's incredibly soft and wonderful for next-to-skin accessories and garments.
MULBERRY SILK is a dream... it glows and gleams and takes the dye so well, that the colors just pop like crazy. It also contributes to the lovely softness.
~When you combine these two fibers into a single ply yarn like this, you get subtle differences in tone as the wool and silk take the dye slightly differently. The colors truly appear to be iridescent and other-worldly.
•1-ply : For ultra shimmer and glow!

Note: Each skein is a hand-created, unique work of art and no two skeins will be identical, even within the same dye lot. If working with more than one skein in a project, it is best to alternate skeins every other row. Despite every effort to accurately depict our product colors, actual shades may vary due to differences in monitor settings.

April diamonds
have made a number of projects with this in different weights. Super enchanting coloring the best. One of two favorites
Diamonds in yarn form
I'm an April baby, and I love diamonds. I was curious as to how diamonds could possibly translate into a yarn colorway. Somehow, it works. It's beautiful, subtle, and looks like the facets on a shimmering diamond. I can't wait to make a gorgeous shawl out of this yarn.
Definitely a diamond!
This yarn is beautiful and is so soft!! The weight is perfect for any project whether you choose to make a cowl, scarf, hat, baby item or whatever. Chandi, you have a gift and we are very blessed you share it with us! Keep up the inspiring work!! Thank-you!
Beautiful color!
It is white, but not really. Very soft yarn with exquisite subtle colors. I love it!
Exquisite!
I loved April Diamond so much that I had to order another skein!
Even more beautiful in person
Stunning color!
Stunning
This is one of the softest, most delicately colored skeins of yarn I have ever purchased. Wishing I had bought more...
OOOh, Shiny!!!
Just received this yarn yesterday, so I haven't had an opportunity to work with it, but it's so pretty and soft! Have to find a pattern that will do it justice!
BEAUTIFUL
I was uncertain as to how diamond would look, even with the picture - mine is a little darker than the picture, but beautiful - very happy with it
April Diamond Merino Silk
The yarn is so soft and I cant wait to use it. But I bought it mainly because it is my birth month and gem. Gorgeous coloring
Perfect....
I chose this particular yarn to become a delicate shawlette. The color is EXACTLY as described. The photo on the website is good but it simply capture the sheen of the yarn. And the texture.... Oh my .... can hardly wait to start my project.

this yarn is soooo soft and the colors are great. It's going to be so nice with what ever I make.. Great yarn
Absolutely Gorgeous!
The color, the texture, the feel....love it.
So delicate and pretty
I was curious to see what a diamond inspired yarn would look like and I wasn't disappointed. Chandi managed to have this dyed perfectly. It's super soft, delicate and expensive-looking :).
