About this Colorway

Holly and Ivy will have Holiday projects will looking so festive in this red and green number!

This gradient is one of our Impressionist colorways - essentially 'speckled gradients'. This dye technique was inspired by Impressionist painters such as Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, and Mary Cassatt. Impressionist yarns are each unique; photos are examples of the colorway, but not necessarily the exact cake you will receive. 

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.
