Dreamland is a truly one-of-a-kind a mix of old and new yarns from Knit Collage. The inspiration behind their Dreamland yarn comes from the amazing trim markets of Hong Kong and India. They are jam packed with gorgeous ribbons, flower appliques and novelty trims. In Dreamland, various colors of wool, mohair, and sparkling Angelina fibers are hand carded together to create beautiful heathered colors. The fiber is then hand spun with tiny flower trims, sequins, bits of lace and ribbon rosebuds. Fluffy, lightweight and a touch slubby, this yarn conjures up thoughts of fairytale dreamscapes and secret gardens. Each color combination has its own unique set of trims and colors.
While the raw materials are the same, no two skeins are completely alike because of the intense handmade process that goes into each and every skein.

Some colorways have a hint of sparkling Angelina fiber (those have the word sparkle in their names).
