ATHENS BRICKS

This hand dyed yarn is inspired by the gorgeous bricks produced in Southern Ohio.  First this yarn is dyed a terracotta, then layers of additional color are glazed on top - capturing the finish and palette of blocks.

Dye Technique:  Experiences (kettle dyed)
Colors are allowed to bleed and mix in the dye pots creating new, deeper shades and tones. While this colorway is repeatable, each skein will be slightly different and there will be variations between dye lots.
