Black Yarn
"Whistler's Mother"
Arrangement in Gray And Black James McNeill Whistler 1871
When one thinks of black, one thinks of Whistler. Black is basic. It's personal but in a public way. Everyone has something in black; it has a comfort that colors don't have.
Our Saxon Merino wool is custom spun into yarn at the Green Mountain Spinnery; the yarn is uniquely hand-dyed at the farm in small, limited-edition dye lots.
Hand-dyed yarn usually has color variation, yet the yarn you select will be from the same dye lot.
