Dance of the Blossoms

Description

Dance of the Blossoms was inspired by an incredible photo of cherry blossoms hanging low over a stream or canal, and some floating away. The sunlight glints off of the water perfectly in this photo.  When I lived in northern Japan, the cherry blossoms didn’t bloom until the last week of April or early May. The blossoms only lasted about two, maybe three weeks before they started falling. There would be so many blossoms coming off of the trees that it looked like snow on the ground.

This colorway starts out as an icy blue and then speckled with peach and two shades of pink.

Please note that color variations may occur from skein to skein as a result of hand dyeing. I have matched the colors in the photo as close as real life as possible however some differences may be noticed from monitor to monitor. Please also order as many skeins as you need for your project as color variation may happen one dye lot to the next.
