Cordillera

Cordillera

Cordillera is a delightfully fun "dirty" variegate. It blends both warm sandy clay, stone grey, and sky blue hues with cool blue undertones and slate speckling. Its base colours are dyed in a similar style to Renaissance, giving it a very blended watercolour vibe.

Shown on the following bases:
Bïfrost Bulky
Winter Worsted
Deep Freeze DK
Snowdrift Sport
Snowflake Sock
.

A cordillera is a major system of often parallel mountain ranges that include the intervening plateaus, basins, valleys, and plains. Such mountain systems have a complex structure, which is usually the result of folding and faulting accompanied by volcanic activity.

This collection was created in collaboration with the amazing Devon @stitches.and.science - it's her beautiful face you see in the flatlay! All of the inspiration photos are from her and her colleague, from their time in Greenland and on Baffin Island during their studies. She has a Ph.D. in geological studies and is currently working in climate policy.

Due to the nature of hand-dyed yarn, skeins can differ slightly both between and within dye lots. Alternating skeins is recommended.

While I do my best to both capture and portray accurate colourways, please note that there may be differences due to monitors.

Despite fully exhausting, washing and rinsing all skeins, to remove excess dye, some bleeding may still occur. Hand washing yarn is recommended - in cold water to limit the bleeding - and lay flat to dry.


Please note that all yarn is dyed in a pet-friendly household.
