Lake Huron

by Dye Mad Yarns

$28.00

Lake Huron is the fourth in our fade of Great Lakes. It is hydrologically the same surface level as Lake Michigan, making them technically one lake, connected by the Straits of Mackinac. The name is derived from early French explorers who named it for the Huron people inhabiting the region. 

Huron has the largest shoreline of any of the Great Lakes, including its 30000 islands. It has also been called Karegnondi, a Wyandot word meaning “Freshwater Sea”.

Our Lake Huron yarn is a sea green with navy blues.
