Black Walnut is a deep, warm chocolate brown with subtle tonal shifts of chestnut and rich cocoa. On this beautiful Kid Mohair Silk base, the color takes on a wonderfully soft appearance, with the delicate mohair halo adding warmth and depth.

This colorway is lovely on its own for light, airy accessories, but it would be especially beautiful held alongside the coordinating Black Walnut Merino Alpaca DK. The combination would create a richly colored fabric with a soft, fuzzy finish.

LUCKY STRIKE COLORWAY

Lucky Strikes are one-of-a-kind colorways created using leftover dyes from previous batches. Because the colors are developed spontaneously using the dyes available, exact reproductions are not possible. Quantities are limited to the skeins currently available.

ABOUT HAND-DYED YARN

Each skein is dyed by hand in very small batches, so variation between skeins is part of the process. Even skeins dyed together may differ slightly in depth or placement of color. For larger projects, alternating skeins every couple of rows can help blend those natural variations.

After dyeing, yarn is thoroughly rinsed, given a final soak with wool wash, spun out, and air-dried in my studio. Some residual dye release can occasionally occur, particularly with darker or more saturated colors.

CARE

Hand wash gently in cool water using a wool-safe wash. Avoid agitation and sudden temperature changes. Lay flat to dry.
