Bittersweet
Some seasons don't arrive all at once.
They arrive softly, as the evening subtly nudges us a bit earlier each day, with goldenrod starting to bloom and the first bittersweet berries winding their way along an old fence. Summer isn't quite ready to release its hold, but autumn is quietly making itself felt.
Bittersweet handspun yarn captures that moment with warm shades of copper, russet, cinnamon, and burnished orange. Each skein is handspun by me right here in West Virginia from butter-soft superwash merino, creating a plush bulky yarn that's equally at home in timeless sweaters, cozy cowls, hats, and heirlooms that started out as a simple gift to a loved one.
Every skein is spun, one at a time, allowing subtle tonal variations and the other character that only true handspun can provide. No two will be exactly alike, making every project as distinctive as the hands that create it.
Whether you're casting on for crisp autumn mornings or just finding yourself enchanted by the beautiful earthy tones, Bittersweet adds a cozy warmth that welcomes you long before the leaves start to fall.
