Name: Raphael's School of Athens

I knit the sample using florets at the top and double-elongated stitches at the bottom

Buttery Soft DK is made of 45% baby alpaca

This is one of a few block variegated colorways I made with planned pooling or intentional pooling in mind

Isn't that wild

RENAISSANCE BLUE Hand Dyed on Buttery Soft DK - Semi-Solid Yarn mar22-3 Name: Raphael's School of AthensRenaissance Blue is a rich, medium blue similar to a blue pigment that was used a great deal in Renaissance art. It's similar in character to Annunciation Blue but considerably lighter. YARN BASE I dyed it on my Buttery Soft DK base, which is made of 45% baby alpaca, 45% extra soft 19. 5 micron merino, and 10% silk, and it really lives up to its name! Like most, this colorway is a little more muted on Buttery Soft DK than on many of my other yarn
