MONET'S CATHEDRAL on Dream Sock- Hand-Dyed Yarn
Out of stock
COLORWAY
This colorway was inspired by one of my favorite paintings by Monet: "The Portal of Rouen Cathedral in Morning Light." Here's a link to the painting. He spent two years painting the same cathedral at different times of day, and some have called it the ultimate series in Impressionism.
The colors include dark blue, medium blue, soft lilac, eggplant, and a bit of chartreuse with a generous amount of speckles.
YARN BASE
I dyed it on Dream Sock, which is an incredibly soft and luxurious yarn base made of 70% baby alpaca, 20% mulberry silk, and 10% cashmere. It is a 3-ply yarn with 437 yards per 3.5 ounce skein. This is a non-superwash yarn, so it definitely should be washed by hand in cool water so as not to felt. Also, it is a good option for those who are sensitive to sheep wool due to the lanolin content since none of the fibers have lanolin.
