Note from Sundara...I hadn't planned to dye more of this, but, well, y'all asked so nicely.
Like I said last time, I hadn't planned to dye another dark indigo-blue-violet colored yarn, but I got a new blue dye, and it wasn't the color I thought it was going to be, it was...well, dark indigo-blue-violet, but a bit brighter than all the past shades like this I'd dyed. So I went with it.
And, in what is probably serendipitous for her, I had a lovely customer request something that would work as a fifth skein for the "On the Dock of the Bay" gradient so she could knit Joji's "La Prarie" cardigan. Hopefully this will work for her. It's a little brighter and more saturated than the Dock of the Bay gradient, but it might fit in there somewhere. Although, if it were me, I'd probably knit a short sleeve "Ooh La la" sweater by Isabel Kraemer because, despite all evidence to the contrary (it's snowing here as I write this), I'm sure the weather will let us wear short-sleeve sweaters soon.
"Blue Moon" will not be dyed again. Seriously this time.

Visit product page →Note from Sundara...I had a lovely customer send me this inspiration photo with a request for yarn in these colors because she said that while I've dyed several bright blue Santorini inspired Daily Dreams over the years, I've never done any Santorini at night (that she could remember) and she had fond memories of the time just after sunset when she visited the island years ago.
Now she wants some yarn so she can knit herself a cute little summer sweater to go with her white pants to wear after Memorial day as an alternate to wear with her bright blue Santorini summer sweater she knit herself a few years ago. Because one can never have too many blue sweaters to wear with your white pants after Memorial day. Or so I've been told. If you are also in need of a second (or first) blue sweater to wear with your white summer pants, this is really a gorgeous dusk-inspired Santorini blue that will look just as fabulous as your daytime-inspired bright Santorini blue.
"Santorini at Dusk" will not be dyed again. Three batches available.

Visit product page →Note from Sundara...After I dyed "Scotland Yard" a few weeks ago, one of you lovelies emailed me and said you were going to Ireland in May and asked for some more green, but inspired by Ireland. And you know I love dyeing green yarn, so how could I say no?
And this is all the green. Literally all the green. Name the green and it is in there. Shamrock (Obviously. It's Ireland), moss, emerald, jade, forest, lime, olive. Hints of teal-green. It's gorgeous. Just gorgeous. So if you aren't making a trip to Ireland, but want to pretend you are, this yarn will certainly take you there.

Visit product page →Note from Sundara...This is one of those inspiration photos that I'm embarrassed to admit how long I've had kicking around because it means admitting how many times I've tried, and failed, to dye yarn inspired by it. (So many, many, many times) Let's just say it's one of those inspiration photos that keeps me humble as a yarn dyer.
But no more! I have found success! I am, at long last, triumphant! And, OMG, it is glorious! So glorious I'm keeping an embarrassing large amount of this color for myself. It's all peachy gold mixed with sunrise rosiness. It's divine. It's like the heavens opened up and angels sang. And I'm pretty sure the dye pot fairies had everything to do with it because obviously I haven't ever been able to accomplish this sort of loveliness on my own. So if you are looking for yarn touched by angels and sprinkled with fairy dust, here's your chance.😉

Visit product page →Note from Sundara...Full disclosure. This was an attempt at the robin's egg color from a week or so ago, but things didn't go as planned and I had to make do. I've been obsessing over this photo since I used it once before and decided to take the opportunity to revisit it. Because it is so very fascinating. All that obsidian sand and teal-turquoise sea. Glorious! Glorious! Glorious!
And the yarn is just as glorious. All teal-turquoise with hints of that obsidian sand washed over it. I'd knit the new "Obione" shawl by Urbane if it were me. It's 4 skeins, but the pattern is free! If you want something with fewer skeins, "Storm Shawl" by Joji is just as lovely and only needs 1 skein. I should also note that this does coordinate with the robin's egg color in fingering silky merino, so if you got some of that, and you wanted to get some of this, you'd have a few skeins of a lighter and darker in this hue for something sort of gradient-y. Or coordinate-y. Just a thought.
"Floating at the Edge of the Earth" will not be dyed again.
