Due to the nature of hand-dyed yarn, skeins differ slightly both within and between dyelots. Alternating skeins every couple of rows is recommended when working large projects. I do my best to capture the true color of the yarn, however colors may vary due to monitor differences.
Each skein is rinsed to remove excess dye, however some bleeding may still occur with the first few washes. Hand washing yarn is recommended. Lay flat to dry.
This yarn comes from a pet-friendly household. Please keep any potential allergies in mind when ordering.

Hand-dyed Yarn Care
Hand-dyed Yarn Care
Due to the nature of hand-dyed, speckled yarns, skeins differ slightly both within and between dyelots. Alternating skeins every couple of rows is recommended when working large projects. I do my best to capture the true color of the yarn in natural lighting conditions, however colors may vary due to monitor differences.
Each skein dyed using professional, acid-fast dyes and is rinsed to remove excess dye. However some bleeding may still occur with the first few washes and the use of a color catcher sheet is recommended for the darkest colors and purples/reds/pinks. Hand washing yarn in cool to luke warm temperature water is recommended. Lay flat to dry.
