Blue Heron Yarns Mixed Novelty Rayon Ribbon Bouclé Sari silk style Metallic Accents Hand painted Bulky Yarn, Mixed Jewel Tones Purples, Teals, Rusts, Magentas, Mossy Greens, Discontinued

A grab bag of hand-painted art-yarn cuts straight from Blue Heron Yarns’ Eastern Shore studio — five different mini-hanks of textural novelty yarn, each pre-cut to roughly 120 inches (10 feet) and ready to work into fringe, free-form weaves, embroidery, or any of the mixed-media projects Blue Heron’s yarn always seemed to end up in. The five strands in every bag are a deliberate mix — a ribbon, a bouclé, a sari-silk-style cut, something with a metallic shimmer, something deeply multi-tonal — so a single bag covers the texture range that would normally take half a dozen separate purchases to assemble.

This listing is for one grab bag of five mini-hanks. We have seven bags in stock, and every bag is a different blend — we packed them by hand from the last of the Blue Heron studio’s textural cuts, so colour and fibre mix vary bag to bag within the same jewel-tone family. Buy one, buy three; when the seven are gone, that’s the end of the run.

• Total weight per bag: 4 oz / ~113 g
• Fibre mix: mixed novelty — rayon ribbon, bouclé, sari-silk-style cuts, metallic accents, hand-painted multi-tonal colour (specific fibres vary bag to bag)

About Blue Heron Yarns. Blue Heron Yarns was founded on Maryland’s Eastern Shore in 1995 by Demian Savits and his mother Barbara Stone — three decades of small-batch, hand-painted yarn and art-yarn experiments for knitters, weavers, and mixed-media makers. The Easton, Maryland studio was best known for the painterly multi-tonal colourways and for the textural novelty yarns they produced alongside the workhorse sock and worsted bases — rayon ribbons, beaded strands, bouclé, metallic accents, sari-silk-style cuts. Blue Heron has now closed. These sampler bags came direct from the dyer as the studio wound down — not destash, not a secondary market — the last of their craft and art-yarn cuts, full stop.
