We went a bit further afield to source this fiber...Pioneer is made of fine, soft wool from the American West and spun in Vermont at Green Mountain Spinnery. Naturally dyed in small batches, Pioneer comes in a wonderful vintage palette and has excellent stitch definition.
Cream, a natural creamy white
Strawberries and Cream, pink with lighter pinks and even a hint of purple
Rose Gold, gleaming warm rose from heart of cutchword
Lavender, dusty purple from logwood
Sunrise, gentle pink with yellow and steely purple...a melting pot of marigold, cutch and logwood
Peachy Pink, fairly pink but reads peach next to Strawberries and Cream..the magic of madder root
Sunset, a burst of soft but bold peaches, from madder root
Golden, warm gold from onion skin
These are the last skeins of Pioneer!
