Hue Loco Speakeasy Collection

Raise your glass to this gorgeous and vibrant yarn! Hue Loco's Speakeasy collection stands out with awesome indie hand-dyed yarn artistry and craftsmanship. Known for their commitment to quality and a kaleidoscope of captivating colors, Hue Loco has carved a niche for itself in the hearts of knitting and crocheting enthusiasts.

The Speakeasy yarn line is a mesmerizing fusion of colors inspired by the clandestine world of speakeasies from the Roaring Twenties.

I love the ten creative colorway names:

  1. Aviation

  2. Sazerac

  3. After Hours

  4. Old Fashioned

  5. Bee’s Knees

  6. Clover Club

  7. Gatsby

  8. Roaring Twenties

  9. French Bob

  10. Valentino

From deep, sultry reds reminiscent of hidden jazz clubs to shimmering golds that capture the glamour of flapper dresses, every shade in the Speakeasy collection is a carefully curated and beautiful collection.

What sets Hue Loco apart is their dedication to the hand-dying process. Nicole and her team take pride in hand-painting each skein with meticulous attention to detail. This creates a unique piece of art that allows us makers to make one-of-a-kind finished garments and accessories.

My review:

  • This yarn is a luxurious blend of superwash merino wool and nylon, striking a perfect balance between softness and durability.

  • The base options are varied including Suri, Mohair, Merino sock, Phyllis sock, Single sock, Spun Sock XL, DK, Worsted, Aran, and Bulky.

  • It is both enjoyable to work with and a practical choice for various projects, from intricate shawls to top-down sweaters.

  • The stitch definition and color ways are everything - French Bob and After Hours are my favorites.

  • The yarn versatility is swatch evident and will work well for both beginners and seasoned fiber artists.

  • Love how we can opt for the full skein full collection, mini sets or sock sets

  • This collection wonderfully pairs with an array of Hue Loco semisolids

Beyond the yarn itself, Hue Loco fosters a vibrant and supportive community. They utilize their social platform to provide a space for crafters to connect, share inspiration, and showcase their finished projects. This sense of community adds an extra layer of richness to the already enchanting Hue Loco world.

Hue Loco's Speakeasy yarn is more than just a skein of yarn – it's an expression of creativity, a journey through time, and a community of like-minded individuals brought together by their love for the craft. I highly recommend that you add it to your stash, yarn shelf, or in your Ravelry pattern que.

Retailing from 30.00 usd per skein, shop the yarns from January 5th with an eight week processing time.
