Hillside Lupine - Tarte - Babette

Marvelously architectural wildflowers, lupines are a delight to see, with their tall columns of blossoms in shades of purples and blues. Hillside Lupine splashes two purples against soft blue, leafy green, and inky navy. One of our special colorways for Rhinebeck 2023.

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. If you have any questions about the color, please give us a call or email to ask for a photo - we are always happy to describe our current batch for you to make sure it meets your needs!

Tarte

Tarte is smooth and round, with a balanced 4-ply construction. Nylon and Tencel add strength, sheen, and drape to the superwash Merino in this yarn. Tarte is a beautiful choice for many fingering weight projects, including shawlettes and sweaters where you'll enjoy the generous yardage in each skein. It's also great for socks where you'll enjoy its strength and smoothness.
