Our Field Poppy deep red yarn shade brings to mind the brilliant, wild flowers that paint the Hebridean landscape during the peak summer months. In the Outer Hebrides, field poppies thrive on arable, disturbed ground that was ploughed the previous season. Somehow, these paper-thin, delicate little flowers find the strength to survive our blustery Atlantic winds, bringing stunning, unexpected splashes of vibrant red to our island crops. This rich, energetic shade translates beautifully into knits, providing stunning depth for dramatic statement pieces or striking contrast in traditional colourwork.
