This Aran weight wool comes in five distinct collections, each available in two skein weights: Inis, Hedgerow, Vale, Glen Sea and Glen Field. Hedgerow skeins contain 196 yds. in 120 grams, but they are the same base yarn. Please adjust yardage and skein size on individual stash pages.

The inspiration for the Inis collection of variegated yarns comes the natural landscape of this beautiful island (Inis in Gaeilge). The views from Ireland’s peaks are breathtaking - made up of a myriad of shades and tones of every color.

The pinks and purples of the heathers, the greens and yellows of the grasses and ferns, the deep blues of the mountain lakes and streams are all showcased in this collection. Not forgetting of course the reds, oranges and yellows of the Irish sunset!
