Base

"The problems you're having remind me of something that happened in St. Olaf."
"Dust reminds you of something in St. Olaf!"

"Like we say in St. Olaf — Christmas without fruitcake is like St. Sigmund's Day without the headless boy."

"When any one of us makes an observation, the first thing we hear is Back in St. Olaf. Did it occur to you we might be tired of Back in St. Olaf, Back in St. Olaf?"
"Gee, no. I never realized."

A variegated yarn with tones of cranberry, golden yellow, navy and ocean blues, moss green, and maroon inspired by Rose's many stories of the simple farm life in St. Olaf.

While this is a signature colorway, no two skeins will be exactly alike due to the nature of the hand-dyeing process. Each skein has slight color variation and the color takes differently on each base. When using more than one skein, alternate skeins every 2 rows for best results.

We recommend washing all finished products by hand in cool water.

Dyed in small batches in a smoke-free and pet-free environment.

Amazing yarn

I first purchased the yarn to make a shawl that I saw at a trunk show 2 years ago. I saw the pattern again recently for changing staircase and it reminded me to get started. People commented on the beautiful colors which are really rich and the softness is lovely. zso I reached out to you and asked if I can get a third skein so I could gift it to a special friend.
Thank you for filling that order of the last one through etsy and the service was quick ( 2 days).
I finished the shawl and it is my favorite.
