Ruby-tailed Wasp *Preorder*
Couldn't load pickup availability
This is a preorder listing, available July 20-27, in collaboration with Jen of Violet Loops to celebrate the release of her VL Collection of accessories! Her collection spans three crafts (knitting, crochet, and Tunisian crochet), with every accessory available for each craft. Each accessory uses a suri lace-weight yarn + a DK weight yarn, giving a ton of colorway mix-and-match potential! Jen is hosting a MAL (make along) for her patterns that runs through Nov 4, check out her IG for more info! These skeins will ship by August 24th, giving you plenty of time to join her MAL :)
We are offering a handful of colorways on four bases, available individually so you can make your own color combo, read about them below:
Serious Suri Silk
Stormy Yak Lace
Charming DK
Stormy Yak DK
---
Ruby-tailed Wasp has a bright green base layer, and it's topped with several layers of deep reds and green, which come out more purple-toned on Suri. This colorway has a real pop of bright greens hidden under the layers of color!

Care information
Care information
We recommend hand-washing all of your projects and laying them flat to dry, even if they are made using superwashed fibers! This will help to extend the life of your projects, as well as maintain their vibrant colors and overall fitted shape. We love using a gentle wool wash, such as Eucalan or Soak wool wash, to clean projects made with hand-dyed yarn.
