• The beauty and nature of hand dyed yarn is that every skein is unique and individual. Even within the same dye batch variations between skeins can occur.
• We therefore recommend alternating skeins within your projects to ensure an optimal finish and colour blending.
• Please also ensure you buy enough yarn for your project at the time of purchase, as colours can vary between dye batches.
• Our yarns come twisted in a skein and will need to be wound into a cake before use. You can do that yourself or have it done by us using our Cake Your Yarn service.

Hand wash only as this yarn should be treated like a non-superwash yarn base.

• Our hand dyed yarns have been washed to remove excess dye, however some residual dye may remain, particularly in dark and saturated colourways. 
• It is recommended to gently hand wash your hand dyed projects in cold water.
• Wool wash or a mild detergent may be used.
• We recommend blocking and drying garments flat in the shade and not tumble drying.
