Flowing with movement, harmony, and balance, it's a truly artful yarn rooted in creativity and transformation!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout This Yarn\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Peru, Estuary is an exquisite mix of fine merino wool, mulberry silk, and linen, spun into a fascinating single-ply yarn imbued with nature's complexities.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis fingering-weight yarn relaxes and blooms beautifully when blocked to form a soft, fluid fabric, with a luster that catches the eye like light on water and with a touch of wildness from the linen fibers sprouting from the strand.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach color in Estuary's earthy palette, from mysterious River Blue to soft Succulent Green, is made by hand-dyeing 2 or 3 colors onto a warm white yarn, shaded by the natural colors of silk and linen. You'll find deep lagoons of color punctuated by sand bars, with swirling eddies where they meet. Every skein of this yarn is like a bird's eye view of an estuary... Unique, precious, and glowing with its own beauty.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEstuary will bring its untamed appeal to everything you knit with it, whether smooth stockinette or textural stitches from garter stitch and beyond, and be sure to also try knitting with two strands held together for double the color play.
