A Single color (i.e. tonal solid) of dark yellowed-green. More of a natural, vegetation green... Hence the name. Darker than Olivine. I believe we released this in 2024, it's our newest green, but most popular. In fact, Kudzu is our deepest green. Dyed the same depth of our Navy blue.
If you are unfamiliar with Kudzu (cudd-zoo), it's more than a cool sounding name... it's a vine that's taking over native habitat in the south. It's somewhat impressive how it covers over everything, but it is a non-native and invasive pant here in North America. The name is cool... the plant, not so much.
Dyed on our Sprout base in our Worsted weight, but 1/5th the size a full skein.
Color Family: Thyme, Fern, Olivine

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.
