No matter your taste in colors, we have a rainbow waiting for you! Chroma is our new color-transitioning 70% wool and 30% nylon blend yarn. Pair the brightest colors with your boldest projects, or choose a subdued shade for gentle waves of changing color. The colors move gently through a single ply, creating subtly blended and shaded sections. Chroma is a single ply yarn that has subtle differences in thickness that gives a handspun look to your finished projects. You can also purchase two solid colorways, Bare and Bittersweet. They pair beautifully with the multicolor shades for great Faux Isle and striped projects. Also available in Fingering weight.

"My first impressions of Chroma: gorgeous, soft, fluffy, awesome. The skeins are squishy round things that show all the gradual color changes. The finished product has a slight halo, even without being washed and blocked. Even with the softness and halo, I found it had great stitch definition as well. I am thoroughly delighted to have Chroma, it is such a pleasure to work with."
