North Shore Yarn - DF Exclusive from Lavender Lune
As fiber artists, we often explore and celebrate the places we love through pattern, color, and texture. These nature-inspired yarns will help you tap into the magic of Minnesota's North Shore even when you are far away!
These colorways were commissioned by Dappled Fern Yarn shop in Grand Marais, Minnesota and created exclusively for us by Northern-Minnesota yarn dyer Sam of Lavender Lune. I started with a list of things I love about winter here - collecting agates on the icy beach, watching sled dog races, snowshoeing to frozen waterfalls, watching the chickadees, catching a glimpse of red rowan berries - and gave Sam artistic license to interpret these experiences using the medium of hand-dyed yarn.
I think you'll love the colorways that Sam created and the special meaning with which they infuse your knits!
