\ud83e\udd57 Slamix \u2013 An ode to young lettuce and soft garden moments<\/strong>
Slamix is a rich, layered color from the Yarn Club theme The Vegetable Garden<\/em>. You can see it immediately: this is no ordinary vegetable green. This skein combines deep raspberry hues, eggplant, fresh leafy greens, creamy yellow, and earthy accents into a color that feels like a freshly harvested basket of garden life \u2013 warm, sun-ripened, and a touch melancholic. <\/p>\n

The name is inspired by the poem \u2018Young Lettuce\u2019<\/em> by Rutger Kopland. Because even though we can endure a lot \u2013 young, newly planted lettuce in September, vulnerable and tender, evokes something else. Something soft. Something that wants to be preserved. <\/p>\n

As always, dyed on our fine base of 75% mulesing-free superfine merino and 25% nylon<\/strong> \u2013 strong and soft at the same time. Perfect for socks, hats, children’s sweaters, or a soft scarf with a poetic edge. <\/p>\n

\ud83d\udca1 Pro tip:<\/strong> Let Slamix play the leading role alongside a neutral base color such as Emaille<\/em> or Undyed<\/em>. The color variation in Slamix adds life to your stitches, even in the simplest patterns. <\/p>\n

\u261e Need more skeins than are in stock? Don’t worry \u2013 I’ll be happy to dye them for you.
\u261e Need multiple skeins? Then I will of course make sure they come from the same dye lot. <\/p>\n

\ud83d\udcdc how Did it Go Again?<\/h3>\n

Young Lettuce<\/strong>
I can endure everything,
the withering of beans,
dying flowers, the corner<\/p>\n

potatoes, I can with dry eyes
see being harvested, I am
really tough in that.<\/p>\n

But young lettuce in September,
just planted, limp still,
in moist beds, no.<\/p>\n
