Lace Yarn

The Secondary Colors Of Renoir

Vin de Renoir

Renoir was a master of oranges, greens and purples, what are called secondary colors; he has inspired these colors in our dye work.


Woman Reading Pierre-Auguste Renoir 1875

Saxon Merino wool is custom spun into a lace weight singles yarn at the Green Mountain Spinnery; the yarn is uniquely hand-dyed at the farm in small, limited-edition dye lots.

Hand-dyed yarn usually has color variation, yet the yarn you select will be from the same dye lot.

2 oz (50 g), 350 yd, 8 stitches per inch on US 2
