Bloom
Bloom is made from a blend of domestically-sourced Columbia, Targhee, and Rambouillet wool. The Rambouillet for softness, the Targhee for bounce and, the Columbia for durability.
It's a round, well-balanced three-ply yarn that produces a beautiful bloom and bounce and is next to skin soft. It has amazing stitch definition that creates beautiful fabrics and eye-popping cables. Bloom is perfect for solids and colorwork.
Use it for sweaters, hats, mitts, cowls, and shawls.
