Jewelspun With Wool is a thicker, self-striping blend of 80% acrylic and 20% wool. Jewelspun Ombré is 100% acrylic Aran with longer, softer shade transitions. Their gauges and lengths differ, so they are not automatic substitutes. Self-striping, ombré, printed or tonal? Self-striping yarn changes colour along the strand to build bands as you work. Ombré blends shades over longer transitions. Self-patterning yarn can add smaller printed details as well as stripes. MODE at Rowan Colourmix offers a softer colour-mixed effect, while DMC Baby Aquarelle changes through related watercolour tones. These gentler options do not promise regular stripes. Hand-dyed does not automatically mean self-striping, and plain tweed or marled yarn is a different effect again.
