A birthday is precarious thing. It can be a joyous milestone or one that emotionally kicks your backside. Or maybe it’s just another day on the calendar.
When my friend Sue Young recently had a birthday I wanted to honor her with a new colorway. Sue’s favorite color is purple – and it suits her. She’s energetic, she’s passionate, and spiritual. But just any purple wouldn’t do, I wanted something vibrant to match her personality. So I mixed and played in the studio until I was happy with a colorway I call Young at Heart.
The first skein of Young at Heart was given to my friend Sue at her birthday dinner. I don’t think she’ll mind if you have a skein or two as well to celebrate the joy of being Young at Heart.
Shown below in Wool Tussah Silk FIngering I’ll be dyeing Wool Tussah Silk Sport and Oak Barn Merino in this colorway as well this week and you can get in on the celebration by clicking any of the add to cart buttons below.
