Each skein of Harvest Worsted is hand-dyed by Turkish Artisans using natural roots, fruits & nuts. The richly colored yarn knits beautifully into wraps, cowls, cardigans & accessories. Each colorway is named after the organic item used to dye the yarn. Spun with soft superwash Extrafine Merino wool, the yarn is easy to care for. With crisp stitch definition, textured stitches, cables & color blocking really pop. Urth Yarns is committed to producing high quality yarns hand dyed in the full array of beautiful colors inspired by the world around us. Crafted by a talented team of women in studios located in Mersin & Istanbul, the Turkey-based brand supports fair wages, pleasing work conditions & the local working population.
