Acacia Sock – Heathered Hive | Hand Dyed Sock Yarn for Knitting & Crochet by Wool Honey

A striking interplay of golden honey, violet shadow, and smoky olive — like sunlight passing over wild heather and bees in flight. Flecks of plum and charcoal melt into soft cream and gray, giving it a weathered, natural harmony. Rich, layered, and alive with contrast, Heathered Hive hums with quiet warmth and wild beauty.

Why We Love It

Acacia Sock is a perfect choice for both socks and shawls.

Whether you love subtle tonals or painterly blends, each skein works up with crisp stitches and elegant drape.
