Price per skein, approximately 115g (4.06 oz), 389m (426yd). 80% Superwash Merino / 20% Nylon.

Price is per skein, approximately 115g (4.06 oz), 389m (426yd). 80% Superwash Merino / 20% Nylon.

Haven't we all wanted to knit bumblebee socks?? Glowing yellow is combined with black - well, really a deep midnight green but it looks black from 5 feet away. Not self-striping like a wasp, this will more likely pool like the patterning on a fuzzy bumblebee.

Somewhat striping with soft pink and blue, streaked here and there with mauve, rose, violet, pale pink and a touch of white. When Hydrangeas are grown in neutral or slightly acidic soil sometimes they can't decide if they are pink or blue so they're somewhere in the middle.
