These homemade yarns come in beautiful colors and with strange names.
Created by Nicole and Cordula from Germany and sold on the etsy shop 'DyeForYarn,' these yarns are made from silk, cashmere, wool or a combination of the three. The homemade yarn comes in a variety of colors including solids as well as various blends that give off a multi-tinted effect. The most unique quality of these materials is not their color or quality, but the way they are named. The yarns have names such as "poisoned blood, rotten pistachio cream macaroon, rain in a graveyard, drunken acorn bloom and bat in a dark mood."
The yarns' unusual names make them stand out in a large market that provides the same or similar materials.
