Flock is cozy, homey, lightweight yarn made from American wool and milled in Vermont. It is made of a single strand of yarn giving it a rustic, handspun feel. That said, the wool used in Flock is soft! The best of both worlds.
Flock is Verb's take on self-striping yarn. The colorways Granite and Sunflower Seed feature wisps of grey and brown wool, respectively, winding around a white core, resulting in long running stripes of white and the colored wool. If you see a colorway with "Marble" in its name, that means it is dyed on Granite or Sunflower Seed and that you will see the same marbling through the dye.
If you are looking for a solid natural color, choose Lighthouse. Colorway names without "Marble" are dyed on Lighthouse.

Flock is best suited for shawls, scarves, cowls, and lightweight sweaters. Because the wool in Flock changes in each edition, due to the slight differences in sheep's wool, each edition of Flock is a little bit unique! Since this yarn is milled and dyed in small batches, please purchase all of the yarn required to make your project.
Flock has been used in a number of patterns, here are some popular options.
