Self-Striping Sock Yarn - Herbology (dyed by Nicole C. Méndez)
Self-Striping Sock Yarn - Herbology (5 stripes)
Herbology is an exclusive colorway inspired by the quiet magic of studying plants as they grow and gathering herbs for magical brews. Like growing a sapling in a hidden garden, each stripe unfolds slowly on your needles, layering greens, earthy tones and terracotta orange. The result is a self-striping sock that feels alive and grows beautifully with every row.
This colorway was designed in collaboration with Nicole C. Méndez, who specializes in dyeing self-striping sock yarn and dyed the yarn for Alchemy Knits. The colorways Spellbook, Elixir and Alchemy are part of the same collection.

About the yarn & dyeing process
The yarn is made in Germany by Atelier Zitron and is certified according to high Oeko-Tex Standards. The yarn is then dyed by Nicole C. Méndez. She dyes with various acid colors. All skeins are carefully fixed, washed, and thoroughly washed by hand with wool detergent.
