Visit product page →Note From Sundara...I just finished an audiobook about a southern belle named Daisy who escaped from a bad marriage and had to find what made her happy and then found love again. You're probably wondering what this has to do with yarn and well, she wore a lot of pink and had a love of frilly flowers. Hear me out on this.
In what can only be the universe trying to tell me something, I then saw the only woman I know who could be considered a southern belle, a woman I've known since I was five and is now the grandmother of my daughter's friends. She was wearing the most chic pink scarf I've seen in a long time. It was one of those Anthropologie numbers and I decided that maybe I, and possibly all of us, needed a little pink southern belle in our life. And so this yarn got dyed.
I'll admit, there is nothing seasonal about this. But on my local southern belle, it looked fabulous with a black puffer vest, so consider it versatile and a four season color. It's a range of creams to medium almost bright pinks and very variegated, so it will give you some pop without being overwhelming.
"The Southern Belle" is available to order until 10am, pacific, Saturday, September 15th. yarn will ship week after next.

The Red Sweater aran merino
$21.00
Visit product page →Note from Sundara...Our local weather guy has told us summer is officially over and I've been thinking about sweaters. Then I got my first order of aran merino from the mill in months and months and well, I realize it seems a little silly to use a sweater for color inspiration for yarn, but isn't this just the best red sweater and don't you sort of want to cast-on for it right now?
Unfortunately, this sweater is from a fashion blog (here, scroll WAY down to see a few more shots of it), so we can't all cast-on right now. But I'm sure there is something similar out there in Ravelry or the more industrious of you will go figure out how to design one of these yourself.
The actual red of this yarn is a little more subdued than the yarn photo, but a tad brighter than the sweater photo. At least on my monitor. It's a gorgeous true red, with brighter and darker bits to add interest. I thought it perfect for fall and winter sweaters, whatever pattern you pick.

Visit product page →Note from Sundara...I've been wanting to dye one of these Tuscan inspired colors in fingering silky merino for ages, but as I've mentioned a few times, green is a color that doesn't always work well on fingering silky merino. So the color has alluded me. But yesterday, I struck green gold! And I was so excited I couldn't even wait until Monday to show you. I'll have to skip Monday's Daily Dream or something because you just needed to see this ASAP.
The yarn photo doesn't do this green justice. It's that fall, fading leaves with glints of gold, foggy, valley and hills in the distance green. But also the green you'd see while sitting in a Tuscan villa, sipping wine, eating cheese, probably after stuffing yourself with glorious pasta and sitting in the sun. It's the perfect green.
Since it's the weekend, and I don't normally do Daily Dreams on the weekend, I'll give you until Monday, September 10, 10am, pacific, to order as much as you want of "The Tuscan Hills". Yarn will ship the week of September 14th.

Sold outThe Silhouette sport merino two
Sold out
Visit product page →Note from Sundara...The two most "controversial" colors, if you will, seem to be yellow and purple. Everyone has strong feelings about these colors - you either love them or you hate them. Although I'm sure there are a few of you out there who prove me wrong on this. Because of this, I often try to come up with a purple or yellow that will appeal to even those who believe they hate those colors and I'm hoping this particular purple is one of those purples.
It's a dark, misty, plumish, grayish sort of purple, with lots of black and grey throughout to make it not so PURPLE! It'll be great for fall and winter sweaters or shawls or scarves or hats or whatever moves you, really. And if you are one of those people who love purple, but have someone in your life who hates purple, this might be the yarn that, while maybe not convincing them to love purple, but at least warms them towards it.
"The Silhouette" is available to order until 10am, pacific, Saturday, September 8th. Yarn will ship very late next week or early the week after that.
Please note before you purchase! The mill sent me skeins that are 115 grams instead of the usual 100 grams. This means the yarn has an extra 50 yards per skein - 388 yards instead of the usual 338. I've priced it accordingly, it's no cheaper or more expensive than the usual price per yard. It's perfect if you have a project that calls for a little more yardage than the usual or if you just don't want to weave in as many ends!

Visit product page →Note from Sundara...It's always a good daily dream when I pull the yarn out of the pot and exclaim "Oh, that is so pretty!", which is exactly what happened with today's yarn. It's so pretty!
It's the moon lighting up forest green and midnight blue combined with the black of night. Gorgeous, gorgeous! Knit yourself a sweater or a shawl or just stash some away for later. It's just that pretty.

Sheen sport merino two
$21.00
Visit product page →Note from Sundara...I've been wanting to dye a solidish green yarn in the forest-pine-juniper-basil-ish vein and this inspiration caught my eye, as something that wasn't so stereotypically forest even though the color is pretty foresty green.
This is, of course, "solid" in as much as hand-dyed yarn can ever be solid. It's full of the nuances and subtleties that make hand-dyed yarn so much more interesting, both to knit with and in the finished product, and should work for whatever complicated stitch pattern you might desire. I will say that this particular skein isn't quite as "solid" as the others, so if you get some, you should expect something a bit more solid than this.

Sold outAutumn Acorns DK merino
Sold out
Visit product page →Note from Sundara...This color takes a three way combo of neutrals and somehow turns it into something that seems so much more than what you might think of when you envision neutral. It's one of the more interesting colors I've dyed lately and watching the color changes as they make their way through the strands should make for entertaining knitting.
It's a combination of slate blues, espresso and walnut browns, and a bit of charcoal grey veering into midnight here and there. If you have a stockinette sweater pattern you've been thinking of knitting, this would make the miles and miles of mindless knitting much more enticing.
"Autumn Acorns" is available to order until 10am, pacific, Saturday, August 18. Yarn will ship early week after next.

Visit product page →Note from Sundara...I know it is technically still summer, but I'm already fantasizing about autumn. Probably because it's too hot and I'm ready for cooler weather. And autumn neutrals. I love the neutrals of autumn.
So today is a classic brown autumn neutral, full of all those fun brown colors: chocolate, mocha, coffee, ginger, caramel. You can't say brown isn't delicious.
Just one batch available.

Blackened Fig DK merino
$20.00
Visit product page →Note from Sundara...Fig seasons has finally found its way to the pacific northwest and I am thrilled, as figs are my absolute favorite fruit. Usually I eat them straight off the tree, but I was looking at some recipes for grilled figs and thought I'd dye some yarn to go with it. Of course, actual grilled figs aren't all that pretty, so I'm taking some artistic liberty here.
This figgy yarn is full of plums and purples and overlaid with a charred blackened deliciousness that I imagine will knit up into some lovely fall and winter sweaters.
Just one batch available.
