Charcoal and Red Cedar

OOAK Newborn Reversible Hooded Cocoon with Removable Tree Branch Button - Charcoal - Photography Prop - Winter Collection

Today's update was the above one-of-a-kind seamless and reversible hooded cocoon measuring 19.5" in length with a width of about 6". It is part of my Winter Collection and was hand crafted from a custom hand dyed and hand spun soft merino wool in a beautiful dark shade of gray. The unique hand made red cedar tree branch button is removable and can be tied inside of the cocoon or can be removed altogether. Also, the cocoon can be reversed to the opposite side to expose a more textured look.

A couple of weeks ago I had put in a special custom order to my fiber artist to custom dye a yarn for me in a dark gray. After a few days, she sent me a photo of the following yarn:

It was a gorgeous deep charcoal gray mixed up from several different colors - a combination unlikely to be duplicated. In addition, she dyed two more gray yarns. One consisting of several different shades of gray...

 

...from which became this hooded cocoon...

...and the other gray yarn which is a more solid silvery gray which is waiting to become a new hooded cocoon and chunky beanie hat.

 I love all of these yarns, but do tend to favor the darker one. The cocoons,"Charcoal" and "London Skies", can both now be found in the shop .
