The Colors!

Have you ever really looked at a pair of old jeans or stared at a child’s popsicle? If you glance closely you will be amazed at the color variations and combinations all around us in everyday things. These unusual color combinations inspire Kathy Oliver to create the colorways in Scarlet Fleece Yarns. As a hand dyer, Kathy has been singled out for her unusual color-combos and each pot of steaming yarn is her pallet. Any of the colorways can be applied to any of the yarns. Each yarn takes the colors a little uniquely. Have fun combining a colorway with a colorwash in your knitting. The possibilities are endless.
