Briar Patch Fibre Co. DK Merino Wool – “Apollo” Hand-Dyed Yarn (100g)

Bring warmth, art, and inspiration to your next project with “Apollo,” a hand-dyed DK merino wool yarn from Briar Patch Fibre Co. in Hendersonville, NC. This colorway honors Apollo — God of the Sun, Music, Healing, and Prophecy — whose stories remind us to embrace beauty, creativity, and the preciousness of every day.

One of Apollo’s most well-known myths involves his companion Hyacinthus and Zephyr, the West Wind. A tragic accident took Hyacinthus’ life, and in his grief, Apollo transformed him into a radiant flower so his memory would live forever. This yarn draws from that tale, encouraging us to cherish each moment and find joy in the time we are given.

Soft, smooth, and richly dyed, each skein carries natural variation that adds depth and color movement, making your finished piece glow with warmth and artistry.
