Our tonal colorways will be available on: Suri Alpaca Lace (NSW), Linen Sock (NSW), Denali Sock, Linen DK (NSW), Rockies DK, + Carlsbad Worsted.

This collection has been flying around in our head for MONTHS, and I am BEYOND excited to show you these colorways celebrating some of the team’s favorite lil wildlife creatures out there 🥹 Colorway reveals start tomorrow, and we’ve sprinkled some hints into this post…any guesses who we’ll be seeing?!

The EKF Spindlewild Palette

SPINDLEWILD will debut IN PERSON for the very first time this year at Flock Fiber Festival in Seattle.

Our 24 colorways have been thoughtfully divided into two palettes that stand beautifully on their own, but are even more magical together. Half of the collection will be available at the Spincycle booth, and the other half at the EKF booth (#39)!

You can meet the entire EKF Palette below. A hot tip…if any of the names sound lightly familiar to you, it’s because they’re one of the existing EKF colorways in the Spindlewild lineup, but with a little twist on their name, as these 70g skeins make the colorway appear a little differently than you know it at EKF…

Don’t recognize the name? Six of those colorways hint at the brand new EKF Collection we will also be debuting at Flock Fiber Festival…
