Dyed by Penelope, age 7, in our Rainbow Soup Collection... (Don't worry, the dyeing is done under professional supervision)
A Kaleidoscope of clean colors (not the typical neons she's been drawn to, lol) Sunflower, Tiffany & Sweetberry come together with little windows of Natural shining through. Pairing this with some deeper colors (like Brambleberry or Gulfstream) would make a striking design. With this way of dyeing, there is a slight pattering effect where the colors will repeat twice around the skein.
The name comes from the idea of having a yard full of friends, a party! She is such a loving girl, making everyone her friend, it's no surprise she was inspired in such a way.
Dyed on our Sprout base in Sock/Fingering weight.
Single Colors we recommend: Sweetberry, Tiffany, Natural, Sunflower, Brambleberry, Pine Grove, Gulfstream, Thistle, Navy.

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.
