Now, some people thought him a silly goose
But we must admit: we love Dr. Seuss!
From his lovable plots to his tongue-twisting rhymes
Dr. Seuss on your bookshelf means good reading times!
But what about Dr. Seuss yarn, you might say?
Well, three new colors have come out to play!
Our Micro-Brew dyers jumped right to their pots
To whip up some colorful yarn (some with spots!)!
Read on and get ready to be astonished;
These colors are fun - and amazing, as promised!

| Melanie of Black Trillium Fibres chose her childhood favorite, The Lorax, as her Seuss-piration for her color this month: a mix of blues and greens with multicolor pops like the poufs of Truffula trees! And whether you're knitting Thneeds or just a really great shawl, Lilt Sock is the yarn you need: a deliciously smooth, 5-ply fingering-weight blend of merino wool and silk that's warm and light! |
Not even the Once'ler could resist this gorgeous yarn in such a fun shade!
We'd love to knit a lovely Ione Scarf in it, but Chris beat us to the punch: he grabbed a skein and whipped up a beautiful shawlette design called 'For the Trees'! Let your love of color lead you to the Black Trillium Fibres website for more! | |

Forbidden Woolery - Babel in "Blue Fish"
|
|
|
|
|
| One yarn, two yarn, Red yarn, blue yarn... wait, we can't stop at just two - especially not if it's Forbidden Woolery Babel! One touch and you won't, either: it's a sumptuous blend of merino wool and yak with a touch of nylon for durability, and it's magnificent! This month's color, Blue Fish, is as lovely as it gets with its deep oceanic blues! Pops of lighter blue-green marry with the dark blue of the briny deep to create a luscious tonal hue that will get your needles a clacking! |
Pair it with the sister color from Loops, Red Fish (of course!), and you'll be all set for a Seuss-tastic 2-color shawl, like the Anemone Spotted Shawl that Chris created using these two colors!

| Wait, did you hear that? It's the sound of another stunning colorway hitting the shelves! Horton Hears a Who from Dragonfly Fibers is a striking blend of bright pinks, oranges, gray and denim blue that are sure to perk up all your senses, sight and touch first and foremost! The exquisite merino/cashmere/nylon Djinni base is 420 yards of finger-pleasing perfection in a fingering weight, ideal for scarves and shawls, or even a luxurious pair of socks! |
Just imagine the fun of a pair of Ardelis Socks by Corrina Ferguson!
Or, try your hand at some Tunisian crochet with the Tunisian Bias Sampler Shawl that Jen just started! The Horton color is working up so pretty in this fun design so far!

| They're fizzy and whizzy, they're bubbly and fun; wait till you see what happens when you wet one! We're talking about Chamomile Bath Bombs from Black Rock Mud, of course - drop one in the tub and get ready for an effervescent sensation not unlike bathing in a tub full of champagne! Right up Dr. Seuss's alley, we think: pure, clean fun! | |
