Details on the gradient cake:

Diamond (and it is a gem!) is a luxurious fingering-weight blend of 80% superwash Merino, and 20% silk. Each skein contains 437 yards (400 meters).

The yarn was specially dyed in a continuous gradient of the Alzheimer Association's colors of purple and teal, ending with pale grey. To Ann, the color shifts represent how those afflicted with the disease turn into ghosts of their former selves.
