013 Wales – Welsh Slate (original) – Silk

A Meadowcroft Dyeworks handpainted silk blend yarn. This colorway was conceived while playing around with colors in a photograph for another project. It has a variety of greys and a range of understated yet bold colors that ventures through maroon and olive khaki, loden green, denim blue, and lavender. This decadent single ply blends 70% superwash merino wool with 30% silk, yielding a yarn with the most extraordinary hand and the eye appeal of a candy store to a child.

This colorway pools; that is to say, it’s not uncommon for the same color to stack on top of itself from row to row, or even to create a spiraling effect especially when working in the round. We’re working away from colorways that pool. Unless this is in-stock, it can only be ordered by an approved wholesale account, and then only in quantities of 6 or more. There’s no minimum order if in stock.
