I love this beautiful colorway. It has a lot in common with Beautiful Universe, but it is a little lighter and brighter. It was inspired by the aurora borealis or Northern Lights. Some day I hope to see them in person!

I dyed this yarn using my Splashed and Speckled method, which means each skein has the same colors but with different placement.

YARN BASE
I dyed it on Sublime Sport--a luxurious non-superwash sport-weight yarn. It's a round three-ply yarn made of super baby alpaca and 17.5 micron merino! Super baby alpaca is the term for the finest alpaca available, and the 17.5 micron merino is the softest I have found--much softer than the standard 21 micron merino. The alpaca makes the yarn extra warm and drapey while the merino provides memory. 

This yarn base is excellent for shawls, sweaters, hats, and more. It's also great as warp and weft when weaving. Keep in mind that this is a non-superwash yarn base and should definitely be washed by hand. Like my other non-superwash yarn bases, the colors will be a little more muted on this base.
