Rosalie
This was a custom order I did today and it came out exactly like I imagined. Rosalie is a customer at the shop and yesterday she saw my yarns and asked if I would dye her some yarn for a Shadow Shawl. She wanted something to go with a dark denim colored Silky Wool that she could wear with jeans. She basically told me all of the colors of the shirts she wears and told me to just run with it. (dark green, purples, blues, reds) I used about six different colors for this and there are 540 yards of 100% superwash Merino in the skein. Of course I need to name it after her. Yummy huh?

Here is a better picture of the colors in it.
Nice!
Even prettier in person!
very very nice! Good eye for colors!
gorgeous!
OMG, that is stunning!
Dang, woman - are we looking at the next Lorna here?!
You do beautiful work. I think you’ve found your calling.
Most definitely a keeper!
Beautiful Colorway–Youre a color genius!
I lust for your yarn!
I think that’s the best one yet! Seriously.
Canyon Trail? Or is that taken already? Those Mountain Colors people have all the good names. In any case, the yarn is quite lovely. How about just Rosalie?
Oh, my, that is beautiful!
that’s good stuff, right there, um hum!
Okay, that’s it. I’ve been wanting to make a Shadow Shawl and hadn’t decided on a colorway. Can I place a custom order here for Rosalie or do you have some other submission method?
That IS a keeper! Great combo of colors.
that is so koigu!!!
OMG, that is gorgeous!! I wanna cozy up to that skein and whisper dirty, dirty thoughts to it.
Each time you show a new yarn I have a new favorite. This is beautiful! I have a
question for you about dyeing, Madame Dye-O-Rama. How do you keep your yarn
from becoming fuzzy during the handling?
STOP IT!
you’re generating more and more yarn lust.
I LOVE this colorway!
I’m going to have to stop reading this blog if I’m not going to blow a gasket and special order miles of yarn…
What yarn do you use? It has such a nice warm glow to it.
Beautiful!
It is beautiful, I love the colors.
Your yarn is looking better and better. That skein looks almost
like Koigu!
I’m going to miss seeing your lovelies in person. Wahhhhhhhhhhhhh
Rosalie is beautiful … what a stunning mix of colors.
So vibrant and rich in color! You are a master and an artist!!! I agree it reminds me of Koigu!!
Beautiful!!!!
Where do you get the superwash from?
Num! I don’t know how it knits up, but in the skein it looks just like Koigu (LOL… I glanced up, and apparently I’m not the only one to have that thought), and the colors are right up my alley!
That yarn is gorgeous! I’ll need to get some soon. I just need to wait until my husband forgets how much I spent at MDS&W.
That’s gorgeous! Right up my alley! So how much does a skein that size cost? I just
bought some navy silky wool for my shadow shawl last week. That would look great with it.
Gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous. I love them all but this one WOW!!!! it has the WOW factor for sure. I also love the berry one a few posts down. You are amazing!
I LOVE this colorway! Nice job Scout!
Yummilish!
Oh, I want some. Can I have some? Please, please, oh please?
I’m with Noelle, that one is really nice.
Will you sell some of it? Or is it one of a kind?
