About this Colorway
Country Roads: Country Roads, take me home, to the place, where my knitting belongs. Tap your feet to the blue/forest green of the Blue Ridge Mountains that shifts to an orange/pink sunset.
This gradient is one of our Modernist colorways - essentially 'speckled stripes'. This dye technique was inspired by painters of the Modernism movement such as Henri Matisse, Marc Chagall, and Georgia O'Keeffe.
Notes about Knitcircus Yarns
Because of our unique dyeing process, many of our darker colors appear heathered, with small light spots sprinkled throughout. This heathering is normal. Our yarns are colored using professional-grade acid dyes. We’ve made every effort to photograph the color accurately, but appearance may vary depending on your monitor settings.
