Mustardroot (golden ochre) — Patagonia DK


Mustardroot (golden ochre) — Patagonia DK
A deep yellowed gold with an earthy backbone. It has that old world, weathered warmth that feels rich rather than bright, like dried grasses, worn velvet, or late season fields just before everything turns. This one brings a lot of depth to a palette without shouting about it.
Pairs well with:
Warm Sand (for a soft tonal palette), Smoked Violet (for dramatic contrast), Raisin (for warmth against plum)
Yarn Base — Patagonia DK
• 100% Patagonia Woolen Spun Merino Wool
• DK Weight — 3 ply
• 270 yds / 247 m per 100 g
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.
