In Stock: Summer-Inspired Serendipity Stripes — Laying in My Hammock

Serendipity Stripes are non-repeatable colorways dyed in limited quantities. They’re a chance for me to have some low-pressure fun in the studio! The serendipity factor in these items is that you’ll know what colors are in the skein you’re ordering, but the striping pattern will be a surprise as you work with it. Note too that there may be differences in some striping patterns between bases offered for this batch of colorways, so please read the listings fully so you know what you’re ordering as much as is possible with serendipity colorways!

This current batch is a little different than my usual serendipity colorways, as they are all inspired by some of my favorite summertime pictures, which are also included in the listing. Because of these inspirations, I’ve given these colorways names, which I don’t usually do for serendipity colorways. I hope you’ll enjoy these summery offerings!

Laying in My Hammock is a three-stripe colorway inspired by a picture of me simply hanging out with my feet up in my hammock. A moment of rest under the blue sky and green leafy canopy above me. Stripes include Deep Red (for the hammock), Bark (for the tree trunks it’s fastened to), and a third stripe of variegated blue, green, and yellow for the blue sky, green leaves, and the sunshine dappling its way through. The inset in the first picture and the fifth gallery image show the photos that inspired this colorway.

**Note that the skeins in our Traveler sport weight base have different stripe widths compared to the ones in Bedazzled and Strong DK. The Traveler stripes are all wider, thus the Deep Red color is far more prominent than in the other two bases, where it is a narrower stripe. Traveler is shown as the skein on the right in the first two pictures and with its mini in the fourth image.**

Recommended care: Though these are superwash wools and can be machine washed, we recommend hand washing in cool water and then air dry flat.

All of our yarns and fibers are individually hand-dyed using professional grade acid dyes. Colorway names are consistent between yarns/fibers dyed with the same dye colors, however color can (and likely will) vary between skeins and between different bases.

We make every effort to assure the colors in our photos are as accurate as possible, but please note that colors can vary from monitor to monitor.
