Willows, naturally dyed, hand dyed yarn, sport weight yarn

I had an experiment of naturally dyeing yarn with dyestock made from my kitchen or garden plants.  This is a lovely tonal golden yellow made from the willows growing in a wild spot near my house.  We walked over, cut the willows, I boiled down the plants to get this lovely color!

This yarn is a non-superwash, sport weight yarn, 100% Merino.  It is soft for next to skin wear.  One skein is enough for a beautiful pair of adult socks, a lovely shawl, or a baby garment. The skein is 100 grams and 328 yards.

Dyed with professional acid dyes, light and washfast.
