This one-of-a-kind fingering-weight yarn was created exclusively for Two Sheeps LLC by Chicken Coop Dye Works, an independent dyer based in Texas!
It is called “Texas Ocotillo” and captures the gorgeous hues of this Southwestern shrub (see photo)!
What is an ocotillo? From https://www.finegardening.com: “Ocotillo (Fouquieria splendens) is an unusually beautiful desert gem. This succulent shrub, often misidentified as a cactus, is impossible to miss when you are traveling through the desert. Ocotillos can be spotted along roadways and love to grow on hilltops.”

Because each of these hand-dyed skeins is unique, we recommend alternating skeins as you knit or crochet if your project requires 2 or more skeins.
