Urban Jungle
Welcome to Seismic Yarn & Dyeworks, an independent dye studio located just outside of San Francisco, CA
Urban Jungle was created for Mina Phillip (aka Knitting Expat)'s Around the World in 8 Socks (Ravelry link) club. Mina has traveled and lived all over the world and chose 8 of her favorite places to showcase in this club. I had the honor of dyeing yarn for the Hong Kong sock (July's design). I asked for Hong Kong to honor my southern Chinese heritage (it's close enough!) I look forward to sharing highlights from my conversations with Mina about each of our memories and impressions of Hong Kong that led to the final colorway once it is officially released. In the meantime, you can get pretty good hints from the name and Mina's beautiful watercolor painting.
If you would like this colorway on a different base or a custom sweater quantity, please see my Dye to Order listings or message me to select your favorite base and colorway combo and I'll happily dye it for you.
