Autumn Afterglow

$68.00

🍄 Every skein has a story. Discover the extraordinary 2026 mushroom season behind this collection in The Colors of Long Island’s Mushrooms: A Journey from Forest Floor to Fiber. Read the Story →

Five colors. One forest. The fleeting beauty of autumn.

The last golden leaves, a glimpse of blue sky through the branches, and the soft lavender-grey of weathered bark.

Autumn Afterglow captures the quiet beauty of a Long Island woodland in autumn through five coordinating shades, each dyed with pigments extracted from locally foraged mushrooms.

While the colors evoke autumn leaves, sky, and bark, their origins are wonderfully unexpected: fungi gathered from the forest floor throughout the 2026 mushroom season.

Like the season itself, these colors are fleeting. The mushrooms that produce them depend on the rhythms of nature, and there’s no guarantee the same colors—or even the same species—will be available in future years.

A little piece of autumn, gathered from the woods and made for your needles.

Details:

  • Daydream base — 100% fine merino wool (non-superwash)

  • 5 mini skeins (20g / 87 yards each) — 100g / 435 yards total

  • 4-ply fingering weight

  • 21.5 micron, mulesing-free merino wool

Dyed with:

Cortinarius, Hydnellum, and Ramaria mushrooms, along with other locally foraged fungi.
