Tour of the Season - Nutcracker - Mad Hatter Yarn

Create a winter accessory with a little enchantment woven into the color. Nutcracker combines deep teal and blue-green with frosty pale sections and touches of purple and berry. The contrast gives a simple scarf or cowl plenty of personality, with colors you can enjoy well beyond the holidays.

This story-inspired colorway belongs to Frabjous Fibers’ 2024–2025 Tour of the Season literary series. Dyed on the soft superwash merino Mad Hatter base, it’s a welcoming choice for a cozy project to keep or give.

Let the varied palette do the decorating in an uncomplicated knitted or crocheted fabric.

Great for: Knitted scarves, crocheted cowls, hats, and winter shawls.
