Peace Lily Handpainted Silky Sock Yarn - 4 oz (114 grams)


$28.00

This yarn is named Peace Lily. I was first asked to dye this yarn by Chrissy Gardiner of Gardiner Yarn Works, who also named this colorway. I thought about the simple colors in a Calla Lily. I came up with the soft yellows of the center, the pure white of the flower, and the subtle green where the flower meets the stem. Lilies are a symbol of hope, purity, and renewal.

Featured in Chrissy Gardiner's new book Toe-Up! Patterns & Worksheets to Whip Your Sock Knitting into Shape!

This Merino/Silk Blend is the heighth of luxury. It is smooth and so soft, perfect for that loved one (or yourself!) that needs that extra special pair of luxury socks.

This sock yarn is 50% merino wool 50% Silk. They are hand washable. Machine washing will make the socks shrink a little and the merino wool bloom into an even softer yarn. The samples shown are before and after 1 full cycle in a washing machine. There is 4 oz (112 grams) and 485 yards. Recommended needle size: 1-3.

Quantity: 2

Note: If you purchase more than the quantity on hand then it will be considered a custom order and shipped after the items have been dyed (2-3 weeks).
