We created Reedy River for KnitInn, hosted by the South Carolina Knitting Guild, in reference to the river and park that runs through downtown Greenville, SC. Reedy River has a neutral base speckled with fun pops of lime green, coral orange, deep purple, and medium blue.This yarn is speckled: it has a tonal-colored background shade peppered with small dark specks and spots of dye. Each skein is different in terms of speckle distribution and placement. We will do our best to choose multiple skeins that coordinate well.This colorway is a Babette: every skein and every batch is a bit different, but we have a recipe and a method for recreating these artistic colorways. The photograph is an example of representative skeins from this colorway; the skein you receive may differ somewhat. If you have any questions about the color, please give us a call or email to ask for a photo - we are always happy to describe our current batch for you to make sure it meets your needs!Katahdin This light fingering weight yarn is perfect for fine gauge sweaters and large shawls.
