Mancos Shale Colorado-Grown Wool Bulky Yarn, 3.5 oz

Our hand-dyed Colorado-Grown Corriedale & heritage Tunis wool bulky yarn is 2-ply mill-spun in 3.5 oz skeins - ready to use as center-pull cakes! Made of a 50/50 blend of Colorado-grown Corriedale & Tunis wool (sourced from our local farmer-friends), our Red Mesa Heritage Blend yarn is durable yet surprisingly soft. The combination of Corriedale and heritage Tunis wool makes this yarn soft, bouncy, and elastic, with an amazing bloom (read more about why we call it Red Mesa Heritage Blend yarn here). Grown in Colorado and spun in the USA, this is not your average yarn!

Our semi-solid 'Mancos Shale' features the rich-charcoal color of a local geologic layer that creates many stunning mesas and vistas here in Southwest Colorado. We kettle-dye each color in small lots and encourage variations of color intensity and shade, so this is not a completely solid color. Very fun. Contact us for larger orders, as we will dye your order as a lot for color consistency. Available in a whole rainbow of hand-dyed colors.
