This is looking AMAZING Haley!!

Thank you so much!! That’s the yak - it’s so delightfully moody!

LECANORA - what's this.. a WARM green?! After many variegated colorways paying homage to golden summer lighting on a late afternoon lawn, or mossy lichens adorning tree bark, this colorway was inevitable! Named for a common tree lichen, Lecanora is a gilded olive tonal with warm brown undertones. It's infinitely complex and a little different on every base! Silk tends to pick up a few cooler tones, whereas non-superwash amplifies golden tan shades and a touch of pink; then it's noth8ing but moody and deep on the yak blends! I love when tonals do this - it really gives you an idea of what went into the recipe and gives each fiber such a unique appearance. (The suri, good grief, is incredible.) . Bases in photos from left to right: 2) Superwash bases: Silk Sock, Classic Fingering, Classic Sport, Classic DK, Classic Worsted 3) Non-superwash bases: Baby Suri Lace, Natural Fingering, Natural DK, Falkland DK, Natural Worsted 4) Yak Silk Fingering, Yak Silk DK

BRISK - is there anything more nostalgic than that first feeling of fall? I feel like as humans there's something so intrinsically desirable about autumn - we collectively yearn for it towards the end of summer (or all year, really) and ache for those fleeting first glimpses. Was that a crunchy leaf I just stepped on? Did that breeze have a hint of chill to it?! I wanted to capture that feeling with Brisk, of the first fallen leaves on pavement, greens becoming less dominant in foliage while the world transforms. Brisk features variegated pours of tawny brown and tan, pops of gold and orange, lichen olive, and a touch of concrete gray. It's fall in a skein. .

DEW - our hazy languid summer afternoon colorway, jumping through sprinklers, the water catching the golden hour sunlight in a brilliant glow. Not the colors you think of when you hear the word "dew", but I felt this inspiration also held commonalities with the beautiful warmth summer mornings have, and how much this emanates the same visual for me! Dew is a variegated blend of grass green on cream, with splashes of ochre gold. The gold tends to break occasionally into beautiful tawny brown and magenta speckles, and makes each skein a little special! A happy accident, as I think it PERFECTLY matches the pinkish edges of the fading sun in the right-most inspiration image. .
