Eventide

“What happens in a meadow at dusk?” When I first got my hands on Magpie Fibers Domestic Fingering I knew it was the perfect pairing for Spin Cycle’s dyed in the Wool, and immediately one of my favorite quotes from one of my all time favorite movies (I [heart] Huckabees) came into my head, “I can see why they put us together”. The custom color way Eventide was inspired by a beautiful scene of a sunset over a meadow, and again, reminds of said film, I strongly recommend the yarn and the movie! Oh and the sweater pattern too!
