August arrives with quieter mornings, golden evenings, and gardens reaching their fullest expression. Flowers sway in the warm breeze, leaves begin to hint at the changing season, and nature reminds us that beauty can be both delicate and enduring.
This month, we're delighted to feature Refracted Light Fiber Arts as our dyer. Their commitment to natural dyes allows each skein to tell a story inspired by the colors found in the world around us, creating palettes that are both timeless and uniquely beautiful.

Introducing August's Colors of the Month: Rose Garden & Rose Quartz.
Rose Quartz is a delicate blush pink, naturally dyed with pomegranate and madder. Soft and understated, it reflects the gentle beauty of blooming petals and reminds us that simplicity often leaves the greatest impression.
Rose Garden builds upon those rosy hues with layers of earthy greens and warm golden tones. Naturally dyed with pomegranate, madder, mulberry leaf, and Himalayan rhubarb, it captures the feeling of wandering through a flourishing garden where flowers, foliage, and sunlight exist in perfect harmony.
Together, these colorways celebrate authenticity. Every naturally dyed skein is unique, shaped by the plants, the seasons, and the hands that created it. No two are exactly alike, and that's part of what makes them so special.
As summer begins its gentle transition toward autumn, August invites us to embrace who we are, appreciate the beauty in the natural world, and create with confidence. Whether you're stitching a lightweight shawl or casting on your next cozy sweater, these colors encourage you to celebrate your own creativity—one stitch at a time.
