Makes learning tapestry fun!!
There are many tapestry wools out there. However, I am glad I chose Array yarn because of its versatility and its ease of use for learning tapestry weaving. The range of colors feeds my new-found addiction!! Thanks, gist yarn!!

Color expansion
I no longer dye my own yarn and was never very successful with dyeing wool so I loved finding Array with it's tonal color collection ranging from subtle, like this Burgundy, to bright (with more to come). I work with multiple strands of color in my tapestries so now I can play with an even greater number of possibilities.
