Irises - Estrellita - Babette

If you’ve been shopping with us for a while, you may remember a pretty purple and green colorway that was called Iris. This is Babs’ new riff on our signature flower, with a more modern, variable, Babette twist.

This colorway can be highly variable, so feel free to give us a call for a current description of what we have, or if you have any questions about the color.

This colorway is a Babette: every skein and every batch is a bit different, but Babs has a method of recreating these artistic colorways. The photograph is an example of representative skeins from this colorway; the skein you receive may differ somewhat.

Estrellita

Estrellita is a fun choice for glam socks and shawls, with a flash of sparkle running throughout the skein! The Lurex is a silver-colored ply carried alongside the superwash Merino.
