Product information

Description

Deep pinks, orange, wine red. Shetland silk combed top spinning fibre. This blend is suitable for felting and spinning The fibre is hand painted using commercial acid dyes in a smoke and pet free studio. I dye my fibre in small batches of two. There may be some minor colour differences between the dyed fibre as wool is a natural fibre and will vary in how it takes up the dye. Care: Hand-washing in cool water and lay flat to dry. I have taken every care to ensure that the fibre is colour fast. However, you may find slight colour bleeding initially so wash your yarn and garment separately for the first three washes. I photograph my fibre in a light box to show accurate colours, however as monitor setting vary, the colours might appear slightly different on delivery.

Care Instructions

Hand-washing in cool water and lay flat to dry. I have taken every care to ensure that the fibre is colour fast. However, you may find slight colour bleeding initially so wash your yarn and garment separately for the first three washes.

We recommend you purchase enough yarn for your project in order to ensure consistency. Although we follow the same recipes and techniques, dye lots cannot be guaranteed to be the same. We photograph our hand dyed yarns in a lightbox as accurately as possible, however colours may vary. All our hand dyed yarns are dyed in small batches of 4-5 skeins. There may be minor differences between skeins and dye-lot. It is recommended that knitting or crocheting with alternate skeins for larger projects to prevent pooling.
