Summit Smoky Quartz
This week on the Millcast, we’re introducing our newest yarn, Summit Smoky Quartz. It is a beautiful blend of 5% technicolor silk and 95% dark locally grown North Country Cheviot Wool with a quietly iridescent luster. We also share some updates on what we’ve been up to recently, including Amanda’s Birthday, farm updates, and what we’ve both been knitting. As always, we take you on a tour around the Mill to show you what we’re currently working on. We wrap up with a reminder of our upcoming events - Open House on June 21st from 10am-1pm!
