Beowulf was inspired by the epic poem. It's a dark, dramatic colorway that matches the heroic tale and the fight between good and evil. The colors include silver, purple, green, dark red, blue, and teal.
I dyed it on Stained Glass Sock, which is a soft and squishy 2-ply yarn made of 80% superwash merino and 20% nylon. The thing that makes Stained Glass Sock uniquely wonderful is that one ply is made of white wool while the other alternates between black and white, so when I dye the yarn, it looks like leaded stained glass. Each 100 gram skein has 400 yards.
