The 2024 Rose City Yarn Crawl’s theme is Flora and Fauna of the Pacific Northwest. Fiber Rhythm Craft & Design chose Coho and Lichen as our sub-theme. Our yarn choice is Freia Fine Handpaints Shaniko Merino wool which is raised in eastern Oregon. Our shop patterns again this year are designed by owner, Dawn Seymour, and create similar scarves whether knit or crochet. The mesh scarf is made from the Lichen colorway and the fish are made from the Coho colorway. Each kit has enough yarn to make one scarf.

 The Coho colorway moves from dark grays to bright salmon colors, mimicking the changing colors of these fish over their life cycle. The green-grays and bright greens of the Lichen colorway can be found in our native wolf lichen and old man’s beard.

Each kit consists of:

• One ball of Solemate yarn in the Lichen colorway
• One ball of Solemate yarn in the Coho colorway
• One Coho acrylic pin
• One Lichen acrylic pin
• Printed Knit pattern
• Printed Crochet pattern
