Merino DK Tracy Chapman

US$26.00

Our Merino DK base is a versatile, double-knitting yarn in pure wool. We love it for sweaters, cowls, hats, and other things too, like taking out of your stash to play with as you ponder your next project

Fast Car was the lead single on Tracy Chapman’s debut studio album, released in April 1988. Elmarie is a car fan, and the colours made her think of the car lights in the Fast and Furious movies, and the fluorescent lights of the city at night. If you’re looking to combine it in a colourwork project make it the star of the show, like Tracy Chapman herself, and add Indigo, Airforce, Rainforest or Sage as the supporting acts. Since our colours are hand dyed in small batches there is variation between batches, and even within a batch. We have a process and ingredients for each colour recipe, but can’t control how the colours “land” each time. If you’re looking for a sweater quantity please let us know and we will dye up a batch specially for you.
