Tips
Tips
Although dyed in small batches with the same process, different fibers and artistic mood create a unique finished yarn. Please look carefully at the pictures to be sure you choose the fiber and variation that best suits your project. There is no dye lot for a hand dyed yarn as each skein is unique as it is created! Each skein is truly one of a kind!
It is recommended that you alternate skeins during your knitting or crochet project, to blend out variances that occur within the yarns.
Due to the variances in the fiber blends, twist or plies of the yarn bases, colors may shift or appear to have different tones.

Care
Care
Super Wash Merino wool is known to be machine wash/dry friendly, but I still recommend hand washing and laying flat to dry to extend the life of the yarn and your project! I carefully rinse and wash the yarn after the dye process, but it is still possible a small amount of color may bleed out in the first wash.
