Home > Colorwork Yarns

These yarns have a big range of colors to choose from and the colors they offer all work well together, so they are perfect for some of the Knitting Traditions projects. I don't think any of these are exactly the yarns used in the projects in the magazine, but they are well wearing but softer alternatives that have the range of colors and are popular here for these types of projects. You could also check out the sock yarns....Heritage, Fortissima, etc for more options.
