Room of Easels - Comfort Fingering
A taupe base with splashes of golden and chocolate brown. Inspired by the rich browns inside the Newlyn Art Studio.
Part of The Newlyn Collection
Walking into the studio at The Newlyn School or Art, you can't help but notice the many golden brown easels standing upright across the room. The floor is a dark mahogany colour, flecked with paint splashes, which contrasts with the white and cream walls. I've tried to capture these neutral tones within this colourway.
The swatch is on my Standard Sock base. The superwash bases (Standard Sock, Merino Singles and Merino DK) are more saturated and variegated than the non-superwash bases. The final fabric will look different depending on the base and pattern used, the swatch is just to give you a rough idea of how the colourway works up.

Care Instructions
This is a Non-Superwash yarn and therefore requires more care when washing. Please use cold water, and minimal wool wash.
Some slight colour bleed is normal on the first few washes.
Useful Information
Useful Information
All yarn is hand dyed and therefore no skein is identical. I recommend alternating between skeins throughout your project to prevent pooling of colours.
If you purchase multiple skeins of the same colourway, they will be from the same dye-lot unless otherwise stated.
If dye-lots differ greatly, photos of each dye-lot will be provided.
Please purchase your required number of skeins at the same time if you need them to be from the same dye-lot. Every care is taken to maintain consistency between dye-lots, however the nature of hand dyed yarn means that variations may occur.
