Product Description
Acorn is a mix of reddish browns and dark grays - a perfect usher to fall weather. This earthy, gender neutral color is just the ticket for cold weather accessories - matching up well with a variety of colors of coats and sweaters. Speaking of sweaters, how about a sweater in Acorn (Cadence, perhaps) with a bright pop of a yellow or red for a cowl to match?
Pricing is PER SKEIN. Multiple skeins are pictured to show nuances from skein to skein in hand-dyed yarn.
With the same tight twist our Artisan Sock yarn is known for, Lively DK is a heavier weight with a noticeable sproingyness. This yarn can be used for any project calling for a heavy DK or light worsted weight yarn. And since it is superwash, it's perfect for quick baby knits!
