The Coronation of Aragorn is one of my Lord of the Rings inspired colorways. After the ring has been destroyed and the battles have been won, Aragorn finally comes to his rightful role as king of Gondor. It is a moment of solemn joy, and I tried to make the colorway reflect it.
The colorway has old gold, forest green, chocolate brown, turquoise, and lots of royal purple. It is the deepest colorway in the whole collection.
I dyed this yarn using my Splashed and Speckled method, which means each skein contains the same colors but in different places, making each one unique. If you plan to use more than one skein in a project, I recommend switching skeins every few rows to create a more consistent look.
I dyed it on Sock Perfection, which is perfect for everything from socks to shawls to sweaters and beyond. It's made of 80% extra-soft superwash merino and 20% nylon.
