Rocky Mountain High - Franconia Tweed

A beautiful cool, deep, saturated blue reminiscent of the tall peaks that make up the park.

Rocky Mountain National Park, located in Colorado, was established in 1915 and encompasses 415 square miles (265,807 acres!) 1/3 of the park is fragile alpine tundra, and is the beginning of many rivers, including the Colorado River.

The Continental Divide runs through the heart of the park for 42 miles and park elevation ranges from 7,600 feet to 14,259 feet above sea level. This remarkable park is a UNESCO international biosphere reserve, and is able to be explored via its scenic roads, and 300 miles of trails!

Base Info: 85% Fine Superwash Wool 21.5mic/ 15% Donegal Tweed Nep, 437yds/100g, 2-ply, Fingering/Sock Weight

Care Instructions: Even though this is a superwash base, it is recommend to hand wash in cool water and lay flat to dry. Slight color bleeding may occur, especially in more saturated colors. This is normal and there is nothing wrong with the yarn.

Note Before Purchase: Color tone and placement vary from skein to skein, even in the same dyelot, due to being hand-dyed. Every effort is made to make sure the photos accurately represent the colors, however, different display color settings could alter the color making the color differ slightly from the screen to what you see in person.
