Blue Heron Yarns Soft Twist Rayon — Chocolate 8 oz / 525 yd, Worsted, Last from the Shop

A river-stone-and-copper skein of Blue Heron Yarns Soft Twist Rayon in Chocolate — the painterly bittersweet, warm-bark, copper-glint colourway on Blue Heron’s Soft Twist Rayon base. Soft Twist Rayon is the studio’s liquid-handed yarn: a high-yardage rayon with a quiet sheen, a softly twisted ply, and the kind of drape that makes shawls and summer tops fall instead of sit. It blocks open beautifully and reads as polished, not shiny.

This listing is for one full skein. Each skein is 8 oz / 525 yards per the printed band. One skein available; this is the last of Chocolate on the Soft Twist Rayon base from the shop’s final inventory.

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 for knitters, crocheters, and weavers. The studio worked out of Easton, Maryland, and built a quiet cult following on the painterly, multi-tonal colourways that pool and blend like watercolour rather than fight you on the needle. The shop has now closed. These skeins came out of the physical store on its way out — not destash, not a secondary market — the last of this base in this colourway, full stop.
