This lovely hand dyed yarn was inspired by the celebration of the Autumn Equinox, also known as Mabon. Mabon is celebrated during time of the Autumn harvest and marks the day when daylight is perfectly balanced with night. It's a time of balance and change, thankfulness and abundance. With this colorway I wanted to represent the changing of the seasons as the leaves turn to shades of fire and the beauty that comes with it. Each color segment is lightly speckled with the color before it to create a sense of equanimity.
This colorway will be part of a series of 8, so keep an eye out for the others soon to come!

We always use professional quality acid dyes.
While this yarn is technically Superwash wool, we do recommend hand-washing to preserve the life of your garment. There may be a small amount of dye bleeding in the first few washes, but this will not affect the color of your yarn.
Each skein is hand dyed in small batches of 2-4, which means each skein is unique as the color will vary slightly from skein to skein. We suggest that you alternate skeins every few rows when doing a project that requires multiple skeins.
We do our best to photograph in true to color lighting, but every computer monitor is different, so your yarn may look slightly different in person.

Notes - This is a repeatable colorway, not OOAK, although each skein will be unique due to the hand dying process.
All yarn is from a smoke free & pet free environment.
