“The shore is neither land nor sea! It is both land and sea!
Whether it's a lake or saltwater, it's a place we can get away from the worries of life. The shoreline is a unique place that seems to encapsulate us. The inspiration image here was my desktop background for years, a picture taken from our first vacation, and a reminder of a peaceful, secluded beach we found; a place we never wanted to leave.

This is a Kaleidoscope dye style (pattern of dye application) but, like a Besprinkled, there are speckles with definition. This is a unique combination of deeper teal and blue speckles, with a soft brown and the natural creamy-white wool undertones.
Dyed on our Sprout base in DK weight.
Complementing Colors: Night Zone, Natural, Deep Cerulean, Birch, Midsummer's Night, Fawn, Blue Bird, 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.
