A Kaleidoscope of colors... Green, brown, and a bit of blue, the come together to showcase the colors of life.
Inspired by the movie WALL-E (Disney/Pixar), where EVA had a Directive... An automated response kicked in when she discovered a growing plant on Earth. It was to be taken directly to the Captain of their space ship to show life is sustainable on Earth. The Captain explains while arguing with the autopilot, "But life is sustainable now. Look at this plant. Green and growing. It's living proof... We are going home today." This is our Earth Day colorway, a reminder that this is our planet, and it's our responsibility to be caretakers, it's our Directive.
Dyed on our Sprout base in Sock/Fingering weight.
Complementing Colors: Kudzu, Moss, Birch, Mocha, Lake Blue, Navy

Sprout, our signature blend
We start with Domestic (USA) grown wool, from the wool pool, with a particular micron count that gives the yarn a soft handle, yet able to with stand common uses.
The wool is super-washed (or made washable) so you can machine wash it for easier care.
Nylon is blended to aid the wools durability, yet at only 10% (making it usable as a Sock yarn) it seems it's 100% wool.
Combed for full worsted spinning to make it more durable, much less "pokey" fibers, with a thicker feel.
An over-twist on the plying makes splitting difficult and makes the yarn stronger.
Sprout was designed by us with durability and flexibility in mind, with the unrivaled quality of an All-American made yarn, ready no matter where you take your project.
