"Doc" Mason

$18.00
Color:

In life, paths cross that are totally unexpected. Friendships are made, stories are told. “Doc” Mason is one such story. A vet in New Hampshire, who happens to train herding dogs as a pastime and keeps a diverse flock of sheep. As the legend goes, Ellen, a prolific knitter, gathers the annual clip and created the “Doc” Mason yarn.

Lovely knitted in its natural color, perfect for hand dyeing to allow the mix of fibers to shine.
