Hand spun yarn - TEAL ZEAL - Handpainted Corriedale wool, worsted weight, 260 yards

From EdgewoodGardenStudio

No, we are not talking about great enthusiasm for ducks (the color name comes from the color around the common teal’s eye!). We’re talking about color here….the name teal for the color was first cited in 1917. If you Google the word, “teal,” and look at the images, there are many shades and intensities that seem to qualify for the name. This yarn is a mix of many of those colors. There is also a tiny bit of sky blue in the ply.

The listing is for one 2-ply skein, weighing 3.8 oz., spun at an average of 1095 ypp (yards per pound); the skein measures 260 yards. This yarn is a lighter worsted weight and wraps at approximately 9-11..

See my Store Policy FAQs section for further knitting gauge suggestions for various yard weights, a bit about sheep breeds and yarn softness and care instructions for different fibers.

My skeins are wound on a full 2-yard niddy-noddy. If you don’t have a large swift, let me know. Spun in a smoke-free, pet-friendly home.
