Hawthorne Fingering
A reflection of the great Northwest, Hawthorne is a yarn inspired by the varied and vibrant place we call home. This sturdy, colorful, superwash sock yarn is made up of a blend of superwash wool for comfort and warmth and nylon for strength. Together they make a beautiful canvas for colors that range from bright and playful to moody and sophisticated. A classic high twist gives this the bounce and resilience, great for the projects Hawthorne does best: unique socks, stunning shawls, and soft yet durable accessories. It even makes beautiful garments, like sweaters and shells, where its hand-crafted colors can get the attention they deserve.
Hawthorne comes in four dye styles, each as beautiful as the next, and they mix and match beautifully for projects that use multiple colors.
Kettle Dyed – Skeins of Hawthorne Kettle Dyed are fully submerged in a large vessel, and then dye is added with minimal agitation to create beautiful semi-solid shades.
Multi – Hawthorne Multi is hand-painted to intentionally create surprising pops of color and variegation.
Tonal – To create the complex tonal colors of Hawthorne Tonal, dyes in multiple shades are hand-painted on each skein.
Speckle – Another hand-painted yarn, Hawthorne Speckle had dye speckled over each hank to create fun sprinkles of color.
Please note that due to the dye methods used, colors may vary from skein to skein.
