"The brisk snap of crisp morning air and the crunch of fallen leaves on the ground complement the vibrant array of crimson... This is fall in Vermont."
Everyone knows about Vermont's legendary Maple syrup... But in the fall, those trees put on a show. Maple trees are the most colorful trees as they change into their fall clothing. From the rich almost purple crimson-red, to the yellow and oranges. We have tried to capture that image here.
This is a Kaleidoscope to celebrate Autumn! Here we layered our Merlot red with some Pumpkin Spice over a base of Birch to make it kind of earthy.
Dyed on our Sprout base in Sock/Fingering weight.
Complementing Colors: Ginger, Birch, Merlot, Pumpkin Spice, Raspberry, Osage, Rosewater, Weathered, Desert Rose

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.
