Three Irish Girls Springvale Bulky — "Mister Snow" Speckled Superwash Merino, ~98 yds

Three Irish Girls Springvale Bulky in the maker's beloved "Mister Snow" colorway — a cream-white speckled base hand-dyed with confetti speckles in turquoise, fuchsia, mustard, scarlet, plum, and a touch of jade. The base is a plump, round-plied bulky superwash merino, soft enough for cowls worn against the neck and substantial enough to give a one-skein hat real sculpture. Three Irish Girls Yarn Inc. — the Duluth-Minnesota dye house behind Springvale — wound down operations and is no longer producing yarn. 

This listing is for one skein of Springvale Bulky in Mister Snow, new with the maker's printed hang-tag intact. I am starting with two available. Both skeins are from the same dye lot and read identically; hand-dyed speckles will of course vary minutely skein-to-skein.

About the maker. Three Irish Girls Yarn Inc. was the Duluth, Minnesota indie dye house founded by Erin McFarland and run as one of the long-running family operations of the Midwestern hand- dye scene — Springvale, McClellan Fingering, Adorn, Big Bang, and the Cashmerino lines were its signature bases. The studio is no longer in operation.
