Van Gogh's "Still Life with Two Sunflowers" was the painting I used as inspiration for my June 2021 club colorway. Now I'm excited to bring it into the shop! I'm including a photo of the painting in some of the photos.
This is a block variegated colorway. It would be great for Planned Pooling.
I used Feather Sock as the yarn base. Feather Sock is made of 85% extra-fine non-superwash merino wool and 15% silk. It's a 2-ply yarn with a lot of yardage. It's great for sweaters, shawls, hats, and more. Just be aware that it should be hand-washed in cold water so it doesn't felt. On the other hand, it's great for weavers and others who want to full their cloth.YARN FACTS
