Araucania Yarns

Araucania Yarns are inspired by ancient South American crafts which were often created using hand-painted natural yarns. Each hank is different! Its individual beauty emerges as the artisan blends color in the kettle to create several unique shades. These beautiful tonal, tone-on-tone, and multi-colored natural hand dyed yarns are supported by pattern books by Cornelia Hamilton, Jane Ellison, Jean Moss, and most recently – Jenny Watson, as well as many free downloads & individual patterns.

Araucania yarns are perfect for making socks of course but this delightful yarn is also a particular favorite for shawls and scarves.

If you make something using this yarn please send us a photo or two so we can ooh and ah over your lovely project!

Be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project since each bag is a different dye lot, and skeins may vary from bag to bag. Skeins may vary one from the other even within the same bag. To ensure random color distribution, work from two balls of yarn at once, alternating a few rows from each ball
