First of all, we want to extend a huge THANK YOU to everyone for their kind words and patience with the Hue Loco team as we made the move to our new space! Your support really means the world and we couldn't have made this happen without all of you. 


While we are spreading the love, we would like to offer you an exciting glimpse into our upcoming collection, Farmer's Market which will drop Friday, June 16th at 8am MST.

 

 

The first farmer's market of the year signals that summer is just around the corner. There is nothing quite like those mornings strolling down aisles of stalls on sun warmed pavement surrounded by vibrant colors and earthy aromas of locally grown produce, freshly cut flowers, and bread straight from the oven. This palette captures that time of year when we begin harvesting the fruits of our spring planting, enjoying meals outside on balmy nights, and relishing the abundance of things that are created close to home.

 

Within this collection, you can expect a diverse range of color and value, from deep rich semisolids to playful speckles, that create a perfect balance of warm and cool tones. There is so much potential for fun, high contrast techniques like color work or brioche as well as the option for harmonious fades. 

 

While we eagerly await the release, we'll be sharing sneak peeks on Instagram starting next Monday. In the meantime, we have gathered a selection of knit and crochet patterns that we think would absolutely sing with any of the Farmer's Market colorways.
