Sand Swept

Description

About an hour and a half outside of Boise, Idaho is the Bruneau Sand Dune State Park, with the silty remains from a flood that happened 15,000 years ago. It’s a peaceful, awe-inspiring desert landscape with sand dunes rising up 470 feet. This colorway was inspired by there with a tranquil blue that shifts into a darker brown and finally into a pale sand colored tan. In fact, it’s almost a beach color! Can you imagine this colorway worked up in a fair isle design or perhaps a shawl or fingerless gloves?

Please note if a color is listed as a ‘backorder’ option, it will be dyed to order and may take up to a week to ship.

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.
