Dye-to-Order: Pi(e) a la Mode Self-Striping

Pi(e) a la Mode was our 2019 Pi Day colorway, celebrating all of the ice cream flavors that pair up perfectly with, what else? Pie! This colorway features the following five stripe colors:

French Vanilla (natural)
Mint Chocolate Chip (mint green with chocolate chip speckles)
Cinnamon (warm cinnamon)
Strawberry Sherbet (pink)
Butter Pecan (warm butter with reddish-brown pecan speckles)

Like all of our Pi Day colorways, the striping pattern is based on the numeric sequence of pi – 3.141592…, which is a non-repeating number. Thus, the stripe sequence does not repeat within the skein, and you will not be able to get a matching pair of socks (or anything) from a single skein. But if you’re a math geek, that’s part of the fun! We include a stitch marker affixed to the beginning of the sequence so you can start your project with the first Pi digit, if you’d like to!

Pi(e) a la Mode is currently unavailable.

Optional Coordinating Mini – If you are ordering a self-striping skein, you’ll have the option of adding a coordinating 20-gram mini skein for a flat fee of $3.50. This mini will be the same base as your self-striping skein, with the exception of Mountain Tweed — the mini will be our compatible Mountain Tweed Merino Fingering, not BFL. You are welcome to include a note with your order if you want a specific colored mini, otherwise we will send one of our choice!

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.
