Bare Naked Wools

You know we love the spectacular hand-dyed yarns and crazy cool textures, but sometimes we just want to keep it simple. Enter Bare Naked Wools. This is purely lovely yarn.
As they state on their website: "Our yarns create garments that are soft and luxurious. No chemicals, dyes, or harsh processing create durable fabrics that showcase the integrity of each fiber. Our yarns come from animals that are loved and doted on and mills that understand and appreciate their materials." It doesn't really get much better than that!

We are currently stocking the five natural shades of Stone Soup Fingering you see up above and five shades of Stone Soup DK seen below. These yarns are blends of all kinds of natural fibers, mostly wool and alpaca, with little neps and noils for some lovely rustic texture. The knitted fabric has such a soft hand, almost flannel-like.
This yarn cables beautifully, and it's nice and sticky for colorwork. Perfect for accessories, garments, blankets...as long as you like neutrals, you'll love these Bare Naked Wools!
