COLORWAY
The Wedding of Aragorn and Arwen is one of my Lord of the Rings inspired colorways. After the ring has been destroyed and Aragorn has become king, he can finally marry his long-beloved Arwen, the elf-maiden and daughter of Elrond.
This colorway is lighter than the others in the collection. It has royal purple, turquoise, gold, silver, and a touch of white.
I dyed this yarn using my Splashed and Speckled method, which means each skein contains the same colors but in different places, making each one unique. If you plan to use more than one skein in a project, I recommend switching skeins every few rows to create a more consistent look.
YARN BASE
I dyed it on my Buttery Soft DK base, which is made of 45% baby alpaca, 45% extra-soft 19.5 micron merino, and 10% silk, and it really lives up to its name!
Please note that this is NOT a superwash yarn. That means it can felt with agitation and changes in temperature, so it should be washed by hand in cool water. On the other hand, it can be fulled, which is great if you want a nice thick and cozy finished object.
