Deep wine and bruise, like roots drawing strength from the earth. This shade calls to mind Yggdrasil, the World Tree, whose roots run through soil and shadow, nourished by sacrifice and blood. The faded streaks within the skein feel ancient and timeworn, as if touched by centuries of story.

Note: This batch carries intentional fade. Expect a fabric with a ghostly, variegated shimmer rather than a flat solid.

Pairs well with:

• Seer’s Veil — softens the richness, creating velvet-and-mist elegance.

• Fenrir — grounding, adds drama and depth.

• Buried Ember — warm clash that evokes molten metal and wine-dark tones.

Yarn Details:

100% Nevada-born and shorn Merino/Rambouillet

Sport/Light DK – 2-ply – 340 yards / 100 grams

Sourced from the Dufurrena family’s Merino/Rambouillet flock, raised in the mountains and foothills of Northern Nevada. The Dufurrenas continue the Basque tradition of sheep ranching, producing exceptional fleece.

Milled at Mountain Meadow Wool, a family-run mill in Buffalo, Wyoming. This collaboration between Fiber for the People®, Lovely Valley Wool, and the Dufurrena Sheep Company brings you a truly regionally sourced, Nevada-grown, American-milled yarn.

Note:

After dyeing, all skeins are thoroughly rinsed and soaked in tepid water with lanolin-enriched Eucalan wool wash. They’re then spun in an industrial spin dryer to remove excess water before air-drying naturally in the Fiber for the People® dye studio.

Hand-dyed yarn naturally varies—both between dye lots and within the same lot. This is part of its charm. Please refer closely to the photos in this listing for the most accurate representation of how the colorway appears on this base.

Minor variation between skeins is expected. Any skeins that fall noticeably outside the standard for this colorway will be listed separately as Misfits.

Colorways vary significantly across bases due to differences in ply, fiber content, and whether the yarn is Superwash-treated. Non-Superwash bases tend to produce softer, more blended results—speckles become watercolor-like, and variegation appears more subtle.

Care: Hand-wash in cool water with gentle wool wash. Always air dry.
