The Reaping
Amber, bronze, dried rust at the edges — with the last trace of green from the summer past. The color of wheat after the threshing floor. It does not glow. It smolders. Lughnasadh is not a celebration. It is a reckoning. The first harvest requires the grain king's death before the grain can be taken — and the thing we call gold at summer's end is steeped in that bargain. The Reaping is a dark harvest colorway for everything you want to make before the dark half of the year begins. Lughnasadh colorway — limited to this dyelot. When it's gone, it's gone.

Hand-dyed in small batches. Color varies between skeins and from the photos. That variation is the point.
