Lothlorien was inspired by the forest of the elves in The Lord of the Rings. The colors feel rich and earthy and full of ancient tradition. The colors include several shades of green, chocolate brown, silver, gold, and eggplant.
I dyed this colorway 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.
