New from Harrisville Designs is Daylights, a light and airy companion to shop favorite, Nightshades.
Daylights comes in six delicate shades, created for every mood and spun with a dusting of color. This 3-ply American cormo and wool combine to form a light and airy DK weight yarn that is soft and distinct.
Woolen-spun yarns are also more adaptable in gauge, as they can compress to a dense sport weight or bloom to cohere as a gauzy fabric when worked on large needles. They have a faintly rustic nature; woolen spinning sometimes results in slightly thinner or thicker sections, and you’ll find the occasional fleck of vegetable matter that proves the wool is never treated with harsh chemicals.
Colors are described as follows:
BLOODSHOT dusted with red
OVER EASY dusted with yellow
CAFFEINE dusted with brown
CHIRP dusted with blue
LINT dusted with purple
8:26 dusted with green

Care Instrutctions:
Fill a sink or basin with warm water and submerge the fabric in water, gently squeezing out any air bubbles so that the piece can remain under water without being held there. Soak work for 20-30 minutes, allowing fabric to become completely saturated. Remove excess moisture by rolling your fabric between clean, dry towels with light pressure. Lay fabric flat and shape to air dry.
