Handspun yarn in weight 3/light/dk, 100 yards and 1.4 ounces, spun from 75% Targhee/25% merino in a colorway evoking the first chilly morning of autumn, when leaves are just beginning to get a tinge of new color on their edges. The fiber was dyed in the wool and chain-plied after spinning. The finished yarn measures 11 wpi, which puts it squarely on the border between DK and worsted. I’ve chosen to call it a DK yarn, but if you’ve fallen in love with it for a worsted weight project, give it a try!
This yarn is finished with a Z twist, meaning it may feel more natural to crocheters and Continental knitters than the majority of commercial yarns - but English knitters needn’t feel left out; it can be knitted that way too! As for weaving, it would make a lovely weft and is suitable for many warps, albeit in combination with other yarns or for smallish projects!
Photos are taken in natural light with as much color fidelity as possible, but please remember that screens vary, so from one device to another it may appear slightly different. However, the item shown is the item you will receive.
Yarn is wrapped in a hank. Caking is available upon request.
All my fibers are spun and dyed in a smoke free, pet friendly home.
Care instructions: hand wash finished items in cool to lukewarm water, with gentle detergent or baby shampoo. Do not subject to harsh scrubbing/wringing or sudden temperature shocks when wet unless felting is desired. Reshape and dry flat.
This is a one of a kind item. If you are interested in a larger quantity or would like to purchase A Change on the Wind in another format or on a different fiber base, please reach out to me! I’d be thrilled to spin and/or dye up a batch to order. It will obviously vary to an extent from this skein, but the spirit will remain the same.
