Ex Libris has dyed this Curandera colorway specially for Practical Stitchcraft.  It is a yarn dyed in honor of "Bless Me, Ultima" by the New Mexican  author Rudolpho Anaya.  "Bless Me, Ultima!" is my favorite book and I was so excited when Rita showed me the first sample.  New Mexico has always been home.  It is complicated, culturally rich, and full of the best people.  I hope this colorway inspires you to read this book and more New Mexican authors.

This Pre-Order will be mailed and distributed during the Enchanted Yarn Crawl (9/28 to 10/6).

All indie-dyed yarn works up differently depending on gauge, project size, and needle/hook size. Swatches are shown in actual colorway sock base, from a previous dye batch, to give an average idea of the colorway.

Ex Libris is dyed in Pittsburgh by Rita, dyer and librarian extraordinaire.

 Ex Libris Sustainability Practices-

In efforts to reduce waste, water and dye are conserved and reused. Much of the dye studio equipment is secondhand or repurposed materials. 

None of your yarn comes from any source that practices mulesing. Beginning 2022, a curated selection of US grown/processed, NC-milled bases further reduces carbon footprints and sustains regional economies.
