Mountain Laurel flowers grace our hills in springtime. Not as showy as the azaleas, mountain laurel still rewards a closer look, with little twisted balloon buds opening up into starry flowers with shades of pink. Our Mountain Laurel colorway dives into the richness of those pinks, with a soft base color and lots of deeper pinks, purples, and burgundies. This colorway is a Babette: every skein and every batch is a bit different, but we have a recipe and a method for recreating these artistic colorways. The photograph is an example of representative skeins from this colorway; the skein you receive may differ somewhat. If you have any questions about the color, please give us a call or email to ask for a photo - we are always happy to describe our current batch for you to make sure it meets your needs!
