Wash & Care

• Washing instructions: Hand wash cold with a gentle wool/cashmere soap. Gently press the water out in a towel and dry flat.
• Color bleeding: Since the yarn is hand-dyed in small batches, some color bleeding may occur during the first wash. Always wash dark and light colors separately.

Good to know about hand-dyed yarn

Sisters, not twins

This yarn is hand-dyed with passion.

Skeins in the same dye bath are like sisters – they look alike and have a lot in common, but every single skein is also its own unique work of art.

That is the beauty of hand-dyed yarn.

Tip: For larger projects, it is recommended to alternate between two skeins every other row to achieve a beautiful and even color distribution.
