For those of you commenting on all the bright colors in one of the previous ‘In the Fiber Room’ posts, we thought you might be interested in this series by Jared Flood of Brooklyn Tweed fame. He is giving us a peek behind the scenes in the creation of his fabulous new yarn Shelter. He begins with some wonderful pictures and explanations of color blending at a mill scale. It is a great story, and we love, love, love what he is doing for the wool industry.
I think I am in love with Blackberry's ram lamb fleece. Oh my, but that is beautiful.
Warmly,
Tracey
I agree with Tracey, that ram lamb fleece is beautiful. I love the natural colors best. Blackberrys is my favorite – but wait – you already know that. lol
I am itching from here… 🙂
