Patons Eleanora — Colour Changing Luxury Blend

Meet your new favourite yarn. Patons Eleanora is a luxuriously lightweight, colour changing blend made in Italy — a beautifully balanced mix of 33% Extra Fine Merino, 33% Wool, 28% Cotton, and 6% Nylon that delivers softness, drape, and durability in every skein.

Its light and lofty chain construction gives knitted fabric an airy, elevated quality, while the colour changing sequences create effortless waves of colour that make even the simplest stitch pattern look stunning. Choose a bold, bright colourway for eye-catching projects, or a softer, more subdued shade for gentle, flowing colour transitions — either way, Eleanora does the work for you.
