Delft is a dreamy dark blue. The heathered strands blend blues, reds and violets beautifully for the overall look that almost has an indigo or denim quality.
A gorgeous icy turquoise, Fjord looks like it came straight out of a glacier. It's charcoal tones give it depth and a bit of warmth.

Noble Heather is a cool evergreen color with soft heathered flecks of charcoal gray and silver throughout, giving it complexity and depth. Well-suited for both men?s and women?s projects.

Brass Heather is a warm golden brown color. The mottled strands feature reds and yellow tones, perfect for fall.
Creme Brulee is a soft custard yellow color that is as tantalizing as the dessert it was named after. This delicate yellow will look great combined with other bright spring colors or would make a beautiful accent color combined with darker colors such as blue.

Orange is a true orange color. It is the ideal orange that looks perfect with browns, greens and reds for that perfect fall sweater.
Persimmon is a warm orange-brown reminiscent of fall leaves. The vibrant orange base tone, accented with shades of golden yellows and medium browns, gives this heather yarn a rich color combination.

Amethyst is a rich warm violet. A lavish jewel tone, it's a purple lover's dream! It works wonderfully with cool blues or warm reds.
Columbine Heather is a vibrant warm purple. It has more red than a true purple and somewhat resembles grape juice. It would be gorgeous in a full garment or to add some contrast to a more neutral pattern.
Fairy Tale is a regal magenta purple, a transitional hue that can make the gradient of your dreams come true. More pink than Columbine, and more purple than Hollyberry, this versatile color can work among purples, pinks, and reds equally well, for an enchanted palette that will have your projects living happily ever after.
Haze Heather is a light lavender with a cool gray undertone. Rose pink, navy blue, and white highlights blend together to create this versatile shade that will match with lots of different garments in your wardrobe.
