Beskrivelse
Cowgirl Blues – Kidsilk. Et vidunderlig vakkert garn, håndfarget mohair og silke fra Cape Town, Sydafrika. Produsert med kjærlighet og under “fair trade” forhold. Grunnleggeren Bridget Henderson ble inspirert under en av sine verdensomspennende turer som forretningskonsulent.
Hun sier at hun lar seg inspirere av de vakre omgivelsene når hun går tur med hunden rundt om på Table Mountain. I en blanding af verksted og galleri farger hennes team både flerfargede og ensfargede garn. Det flerfargede garnet har altid et element af de ensfargede garnet i seg slik at de skal være enkle å kombinere. Det finnes flere garnkvaliteter fra Cowgirls Blue felles for alle er at de blir farget i samme nydelige farger slik at de kan kombineres.

Garanti
At Cowgirlblues we guarantee that our yarns are hand-dyed. However you can visit our studio and see for yourself. Because we hand dye there is some variation between skeins. So if you’re planning a bigger project please include a note for us. We’ll ensure everything you order comes from the same dye batch.
Our luxurious blend of kid mohair and wool is light, airy and incredibly soft. Mohair is called “the noble fibre” and not for nothing. Mohair has quite unique lustre, resilience and incredible colour shine. And South Africa produces more than 50% of global mohair supply. In addition the country is also renowned for the best quality mohair fibre. South Africans farm angora goats “free-range style” in the Eastern Cape’s Karoo region. At the same time the industry body works hard to ensure that farming practices are sustainable. As a result the entire value chain is ethical and responsible. So you can feel really good about using this yarn because we know where it comes from and how it’s produced.

Signs of Spring
– Signs of Spring is a colourway inspired by our beautiful and unique Cape floral kingdom. Splashes of hot pink are scattered on a background of lush green botanicals.
Tambourine man
– Cue the music … Hey Mr Tambourine Man play a song for me, I’m not a sleepy and there ain’t no place I’m going to … Colour naming inspiration isn’t always easy. I was on a music and song theme when I looked at this one, and somehow the name just stuck. I’m often not sleepy, and knitting is a great thing to do when you’re contemplating life, the universe and everything in the wee hours of the morning, or any time really!
Writing in the sand
– What inspired the colour name of our fluffy mohair Writing in the Sand? Imagine a wave hitting the beach. As it recedes write your name in the wet sand. And watch as the next wave washes it away.
Moody blues
Blues can be happy. And blues can be sad. The sky is blue. Violets are blue also. And the ocean is blue too. So we chose Moody Blues. Because that’s how these blues made us feel.
