No matter your taste in colors, we have a rainbow waiting for you! Chroma is our new color-transitioning 70% wool and 30% nylon blend yarn. Pair the brightest colors with your boldest projects, or choose a subdued shade for gentle waves of changing color. The colors move gently through a single ply, creating subtly blended and shaded sections. You can also purchase two solid colorways, Bare and Bittersweet. They pair beautifully with the multicolor shades for great Faux Isle and striped projects. Also available in Fingering weight.

Note new colors as of August 2014 now feature a mirrored repeat instead of sequential.

This yarn is also now superwash wool and is machine washable. The old version would felt, please check your label for care instructions.
