And… Back to Cold Again

By Stephanie

No sooner had I begun to wax lyrical about Spring than the weather decided to teach me a lesson and get cold again.   In honour of that, I dyed a new yarn.

Sock Yarn, Fingering Weight Superwash Merino, in Cold Waters

In a still northern sea, the prow of a ship plows through cold waters, dividing the waves into a pale, frothing wake. The water is dark, foreboding… a deep blue broken by white wave caps, and chunks of silver-gray ice. Beautiful in its strength… beautiful, these endless Cold Waters.

This skein is approximately 100g of Superwash Merino in a wonderfully soft 3-ply, fingering weight yarn.

Fiber Content: 100% Superwash Merino
Weight: Approximately 3.75oz / 105g
Colourway: Cold Waters, 100324-001
Care Instructions for the final item: Hand or Mashine wash, Lay flat to dry.

And Spring Weather Inspires Spring Dyeing!

With Spring days filled with clear skies and bright sun, this is what comes out of my dyepot…

Sock Yarn, Fingering Weight Superwash Merino, in Freshly Cut Grass

When Winter has loosened its icy grip at last and the snow has melted away to reveal hopeful buds pushing determinedly up through the dark earth, there will come one day a scent drifting past on a gentle breeze… a smell you remember but can’t quite place… And your mind will recall bright clear deep greens, and soft pale yellows — and will give you the name of the crisp, delicious smell your nose had forgotten: Freshly Cut Grass.

This skein is just under 100g of Superwash Merino in a wonderfully soft 3-ply, fingering weight yarn.  It’s in the SpaceCadet Creations shop now.
