About this Item

This yarn is ready to ship from our studio to your favorite knitting chair. Please see below for the fiber content and yardage of available cakes.

About this Colorway

April Skies changes slowly from spring-sky blue to a brooding sky, then to cloudy gray. Promising warmth to come, with still a possibility of showers, it brings out the best tones of hopeful spring days.

This gradient is one of our Panoramic gradients - gorgeous, hand-dyed, gradient yarn in saturated colors with several color transitions throughout the cake.

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.
