Sorry... not sorry for all the new yarn pictures!! We had some much fun with this batch that we had to share with you!! Not only is this yarn simply just a fun one to look at based on its wide range of hand dyed colors; it's just as soft to the touch waiting to be knit up into whatever project your imagination is craving! Each skein is spun up of 100% Blue Face Leicester fiber, giving the yarn strength but not to compromise on the soft texture and smooth finish. We hand dyed each skein using professional acid dyes. Please note that different monitors can show different color tones, so we do our very best to showcase the true to skein colors. Did you know that Govenor Wolfe's administration partnered with the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture & the DCNR to proclaim tomorrow (Aug 20th) as Honey Bee Day in the state of PA! The value of the PA apairy industry is estimated at more than $76 million, most of which is based on increased yield and quality of crops that are partially or completely dependent on bees for pollination. Did you know that 1/3 of our food supply is the result of pollination from honey bees?! This is why it is increasingly important that we appreciate and take care of these fascinating creatures as well as preserving open spaces & farms that provide habitats for these pollinators. We are so happy to be just a very tiny part of the apairy industry and spent today doing hive inspections and honey extractions as a way to celebrate!! Make sure to support local... we have fresh honey available in our farm store and online! Join us in celebrating the bees tomorrow and make sure to thank your local bee keepers for protecting these fascinating creatures!   Finished this lovely Barber Pole 2 Ply Worsted yarn today for a customer and just wanted to share!  |
