I named this colorway after a line from Hopkins' poem, "Pied Beauty." It's an assigned pooling colorway where the assigned color is a beautiful royal blue and the other three quarters is a mixture of lilac, violet, purple, and a bit of white.
YARN BASE I dyed it on Twinkle Sock, which is made of 90% superwash merino and 10% sparkly lurex. It's a lovely base for shawls and cowls and hats.
