Luxurious and exuberant as a field of wildflowers, Wild Bloom is a wispy yet substantial lace-weight yarn. The combination of baby alpaca, silk, merino, and yak fibers create an exceptionally soft halo that feels like a warm hug.
Yak fiber is similar in softness to cashmere, while adding a uniquely airy quality to the yarn. Knit Wild Bloom at a larger gauge for lightweight but warm garments and accessories. Or hold a strand together with another yarn like or to add a luscious halo to your project.
Our palette is inspired by our local Northern California flora and fauna such as the Pacific Ocean, redwoods, and golden grasses. Wild Bloom's pale grey base color adds depth and complexity to Verb's naturally-dyed hues.
Use Wild Bloom to add a touch of sophistication to any project!
