This is naturally dyed yarn from Colorstorms. It contains 50% Merino and 50% seacell, a silk-like fiber made from seaweed. The yarn has a lovely sheen to it and a nice smooth texture for knitting.

These yarns are naturally dyed using traditional dyestuff, including barks, berries, black beans, and cochineal bugs. The yarn holds its color very well over time as long as it is not kept in direct sunlight.

Also sold in sets of mini skeins. Please adjust yardage and skein weight on individual stash pages, since this is the same base yarn.
