Dried Lavender
Chickadee base: 74% Baby Suri Alpaca/ 26% Mulberry Silk
Laceweight, 50g, 328 yds/ 299 m

Dried Lavender is a beautifully moody, subtly tonal purple with both gray and brown undertones.

Our Chickadee base is an ultra-soft, cloudlike blend of baby Suri aplaca and mulberry silk. It's a laceweight with an incredible halo. Chickadee is perfect for holding together with matching or coordinating colors on our other bases, or knitting on its own for ethereal, feather-light knits. If you or your knitwear recipient have a sensitivity to mohair, but you're craving that fluffy look, Chickadee is a great choice as the baby Suri alpaca is a lot less likely to irritate sensitive skin-- I have very sensitive skin and I can wear Chickadee around my neck, wrists, and forehead with no problem whatsoever.

As this is a hand-dyed yarn, there are no dye-lots and skeins may vary slightly. Please purchase enough for your entire project for best matching. Alternating skeins is recommended. This base is non-superwash, hand-wash, gently press out excess water, and lay flat to dry.
