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

Celebrate beauty, strength, and tradition with “Hera,” a hand-dyed DK merino wool yarn from Briar Patch Fibre Co. in Hendersonville, NC. Inspired by Hera — Queen of Olympus and guardian of marriage, women, and family — this colorway blends soft wedding tones of blue, pink, and purple into a gentle, romantic palette.

Each skein honors the goddess who blesses unions and watches over women, making this yarn a meaningful choice for heirloom gifts, bridal shawls, baby blankets, and special keepsake pieces. The hand-dyed process gives the colors soft transitions and natural depth, adding elegance to every stitch.

Made from 100% merino wool, Hera is incredibly soft, breathable, and perfect for any project you want to feel luxurious, warm, and crafted with intention.

Color & Care Notes

Because each skein is hand-dyed, colors may vary slightly from batch to batch. If your project requires multiple skeins, you’re welcome to reach out — we can help ensure matching dyelots or arrange a custom dye session just for you.

Wet block your finished piece. Expect light color bleeding on the first wash. Handwash gently in cool water with your preferred wool wash and lay flat to dry.

Please note that Briar Patch Fibre Co. is a pet-friendly studio with cats and dogs present. While the artist does everything possible to keep yarn protected, the animals remain mighty and occasionally curious.
