In 2018, there was an explosion in NYC at the conEdison power plant. The images that came out of that were spectacular, teal covered the sky over the city as a fire erupted at the plant. This was inspired by that event.
A Kaleidoscope swirled with deep teals, burgundy, and Kumquat orange. In addition, speckled with burgundy and orange on a natural background. Dyed on our Sprout base in Worsted weight.
Single Colors we recommend: Clearwater, Gulfstream, Brambleberry, Kumquat, Thistle, Night Zone.
*This was worked up as a collaborative colorway for the ConEdison Cover Up (pictured).

What is Sprout?
The wool is from American grown Merino Sheep flocks. Farmers/Ranchers who grow with care for their wool and health of their flock.
American Grown
The wool is combed before it's twisted. This eliminates small fibers that itch, plus it aids durability as it leaves only longer wool fibers.
Worsted... Spun?
To replace Silk, nylon was blended to wool in the 40's for added durability and shape retention. With only 10%, you won't know the it's there, but it's doing it's job.
Why Nylon?
Over-twisting makes the yarn stronger and splitting difficult. With a Balanced S-twist, it's great for knitting! (With a tight ply, crocheters need not worry about untwisting.)
Twist matters.
