The Tarantula Nebula is home to some fairly young stars. Its official name is Stellar nursery 30 Doradus but gets its nickname from the long, dust filled projections out from its center. Located in the Large Magellanic Cloud galaxy, this relatively close nebula is home to the faster, largest, hottest star-forming region allowing us to study star formation like what our own galaxy experienced billions of years ago.
Information is pulled from various posts by Nasawebb on Instagram.
My interpretation chose to focus on the composition image of what the Webb Telescope as well as the Chandra X-Ray was able to observe. Swaths of terracotta, purple, blue, charcoal and the multitude of other shades that come combining those.

All in stock yarn ships on Mondays.
Disclaimers: This listing is for one skein of yarn only. Please use the quantity selector if you desire more than one skein. Photos are a representation of the colorway you will receive. Monitors may vary slightly causing variations in colors seen. I do my best to accurately portray the given color(s) but I full admit that photography and photo editing is not my forte.
Yarn is soaked in a yuzu scented wool wash before being rinsed until the water runs clear. Some color bleeding for the first few washes may be possible especially for those highly saturated colors. It is advised to wash your makes separately.
Additionally, I recommend washing handmade items with a mild detergent and laying flat to dry. Superwash items can possibly be machine washing on gentle cycle but I can not be held responsible for any mishaps. Non-Superwash items should DEFINITELY be hand washed.
All yarn comes from a pet friendly home, specifically cats as the dog has zero access to my studio. Twisted and labeled yarn is kept from up and away from possible kitty snuggles but please keep this information in mind when purchasing.
