Somewhere between caramel & fudge, sits this soft, creamy, and melt-in-your-mouth goodness called a Praline.
A note from the dyer, Lindsay: "When I was little, one of my favorite times of year was when my great-uncle Jack would send us a big bag of pecans from the harvest at his farm in Alabama. It meant one thing…pecan pralines. They were sweet, salty, and a little bit crunchy, and they were one of my favorites as a kid. It’s been a long time since those bags of pecans made it to my doorstep, but the memories are just as sweet."
This seasonal Besprinkled colorway brings subtle color pops to an otherwise neutral earthy orange. Using our Osage orange as the base, we speckled bits of pumpkin orange and chestnut brown.
Dyed on our Sprout base in Sock/Fingering weight.
Complementing Colors: Osage, Pumpkin Spice, Ginger, Mocha, Brick House, Merlot, Wenge.

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.
