Grey skies and rain today but it’s all colour and rainbows as we dream about what lovely yarns our exhibitor @riverknitsuk will be bringing to the Yarnporium. *** Becci and Markus of RiverKnits hand dye British wool yarns on their narrowboat studio, including breeds such as Bluefaced Leicester, Wensleydale, and Jacob. The earthy landscape-inspired colours are dyed in layers to create blended and complex variegated colourways. They also have ranges of tonal and semi-solid yarns, including a wall of 76 individual mini skein shades. *** #yarnporium #yarnporium2018 #yitcmakehappy #yitcyarnadventures #yarnloversofinstagram #indiedyersofinstagram
