Irish Moss Worsted

Chondrus crispus

A burgundy hued algae that spreads like wildfire and floats like clouds suspended in the water.

Splashed onto our worsted weight 100% superwash merino yarn

4 ply, 218 yds, 100g, never from mulesing

Hand dyed in Maine

Actual color may vary slightly due to hand dyeing process and lighting. It is always recommended to alternate skeins to avoid unwanted color pooling if a project requires more than one.

Hanks can be wound into cakes for an additional fee. Not recommended for long term storage or for more than 3 hanks per order due to loss of integrity in the fiber from extended tension on the yarn. If you would like to purchase more than 3 caked hanks in your order, please e-mail freshwaterpurlfiber@gmail.com and we’d be happy to arrange that for you.
