Bamboo Forest Bamboo Blend Sock Yarn

Description

** This is the yarn that is featured in The Tsock Tsarina's sock pattern, "You Jane", detailed here: http://www.tsocktsarina.com/blog/?p=210

Sunlight filtering through green leaves of bamboo in the deep forests that giant panda bears call home is the inspiration for this yarn. The skein of Leafy Sheep base yarn was handpainted with dark green cellulose dye, then vat dyed in a lighter green protein dye. There is plenty here to make an adult pair of socks.

This yarn will be reskeined to take care of any pesky tangles that may have developed during the dyeing process. Please let me know if you'd prefer it in skein form (so elegant for gifts, or looking spiffy in your stash) or made into a center-pull ball AKA yarncake (ready to knit with the moment it arrives). Just put "skein" or "ball" in the Comments to Buyer box as you check out. If you don't specify, I'll reskein it.
