Riverstone

Riverstone: 250m skeins = approx. 100g. Hand-dyed. A brownish silvery grey reminiscent of the smooth stones and boulders you find in the mighty braided rivers of New Zealand’s South Island.

This yarn is named after Rough Ridge, the geographical location of the farm in the Maniototo where the merino-cross sheep come from. The picture on the label shows the rocky hills of Rough Ridge with the shearing shed in the foreground. You can see the shearers vans parked outside the woolshed.

• 250m skeins = approx. 100g.
