Late one afternoon, as I was walking through the Union Square Greenmarket in New York, my eyes locked onto a stand brimming with gorgeous locally grown yarns. Several months later, Eugene Wyatt, the owner of Catskill Merino sent me some of this gorgeous yarn to play with. It’s super lightweight and lofty and comes in an array of exquisite colors.
