Anne Elliot from Persuasion is my favorite Jane Austen character after Lizzie Bennet. Faithful, dependable, and kind, she is full of virtue but also realistic.
I dyed this colorway using color symbols for her character if that makes sense. There's gray for the sadness of losing her beloved at the beginning, yellow for her efforts to be cheerful in spite of it, blue for loyalty, green for hope, and lilac for romance.
I dyed this yarn on Sparkly Merino Sock base this time, which is made of 92% superwash merino and 8% sparkly lurex. It's a lovely base for shawls and cowls and hats.YARN FACTS
