Description
Pure Imagination is a fun speckled yarn that gets its name from a jawbreaker. I was playing with red, turquoise and yellow speckles, and they sometimes morph into a little bit of green. The candy reminded me of the movie “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”. As I was creating the yarn the song got stuck in my head, and so the name attached to the yarn.
Don’t worry, this yarn comes to you ready to knit and not ready to eat!
Because of its bright primary colors sitting on top of a white base, this yarn pairs extremely well with a lot of my solids or tonal yarn. I have seen it used to great effect in shawls and baby blankets. The baby blanket was my favorite!
