Old trees and towering canopies create a safe harbor for wandering souls; all while the fox scurries through, with the ease of a house cat, and the teeth of a wolf; sly and cunning, he has no concern for man. "The forest makes a claim upon men's hearts, and the fox deceives."
This is a Kaleidoscope dye style. Blending earthy early Autumn colors of Ginger (a bronze-orange) and the dark Kudzu green, mixing with soft Osage orange and Caca d’Oie (Goose Poop, so affectionately named) green.
Dyed on our Sprout base in Worsted weight.
Complementing Colors: Ginger, Osage, Kudzu, Caca d'Oie, Moss, Fern, Olivine, Milk & Honey, Birch, Old Gold.

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.
