A Single color (i.e. tonal solid) of the medium-teal variety. Reminiscent of the gulf waters where the stream is darker, with depth up to 3900 ft. Lighter than Night Zone, yet a bit darker than Robin Egg (though Robin Egg seems blue, it's a teal). Dyed on our Sprout base in the DK weight, but 1/5th the size.
Color Family: Bubbles, Robin Egg, Night Zone

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.
