About this Colorway

The Dark Hedges is inspired by The Dark Hedges, an avenue of beech trees in Northern Ireland that has stirred the imaginations of many over its long history. This color was our Irish American Heritage Month Club color for 2023.

This skein of is part of our Speckle Collection - which offers gorgeous spots of the color on a semi-solid background. 

Notes about Knitcircus Yarns

Because of our unique dyeing process, many of our darker colors appear heathered, with small light spots sprinkled throughout. This heathering is normal. Our yarns are colored using professional-grade acid dyes. We’ve made every effort to photograph the color accurately, but appearance may vary depending on your monitor settings.
