CARIBBEAN SUNSET on Squiggle Sock - Hand-Dyed Yarn
Out of stock
COLORWAY
Caribbean Sunset was inspired by the idea of a sunset over the ocean. About one third of the skein is dyed in shades of blue and green to represent the water. The opposite third is dyed in all the colors of the sunset--orange and gold and lilac and purple and fuchsia. The middle section represents the reflection of the sunset on the water and has deeper purples and blues.
Each of the three sections has multiple colors in it with some overlapping between them, so this is both a Splashed and Speckled colorway and a block variegated colorway. My son Joseph came up with this colorway, and I think it's stunning! I hope you enjoy creating with it.
YARN BASE
I dyed it on Squiggle Sock, which is such a fun yarn base made with superwash merino spun in a spiral around a nylon core and with little beehives or slubs every couple feet.

YARN SWATCH
I included a swatch I knit on Squoosh DK to give you an idea of how the colorway can work up, but keep in mind that the swatch is a smooth base and not textured like this one.
