Fire in the Sky
Here’s a picture of the yarn I dyed last week all wrapped up! This is actually the 4 skeins that I dyed all together, so it’s a pretty huge wad of yarn. It’ll be divided up individually, wrapped up prettily, and listed in the store very soon.
I love this colorway bunches! It’s going to be a permanent colorway, although I suspect the results will differ slightly from yarn to yarn depending on the sweater I use. The best part of this batch is that the yarn is incredible. It’s a pretty decent weight (haven’t measured WPI yet, but it’s at LEAST worsted) and it’s 100% soft wool that passes my cheek test. I’m still debating whether to keep a skein for myself.

This colorway was originally inspired by all the wildfires that have broken out recently. It’s amazingly scary and beautiful at the same time to see flames raging against the sky. I remember having those same feelings when I was studying fire control as part of my Forest Management major in college. A raging wildfire is one of the most terrible, frightening, and absolutely awe-inspiring things I have ever seen.
