I have hand spun this yarn from fibre which has been dyed locally here in the South West of England and work with local mills and dyers to bring you the very best of each year’s fleece. Acid dyes are always of a professional grade.

Washing yarns before use is not required but, If you do wish to wash this yarn before use or, for future washing of any garment, please hand wash using a mild (preferably non-bio) soap with warm water. Please do not put yarn from hot water into cold water or vice versa as this will “shock” the yarn and cause it to shrink and harden ie. try to ensure that both wash and rinse water are similar temperatures and do not rub or agitate the yarn too much as wool felts easily! If you are using soap on your wool, make sure to use PH Neutral soap as acidic soaps can leach colours and ultimately bleach wool. This is not a result of poor dyeing, but instead a result of the acid destroying the fibre (which will cause wear over time).

Please note that I photograph all my products to reflect the colours as accurately as I can (if there is any slight discrepancy I will note this in the description) but, however good my photographs are, the colours can appear different on other computer screens. I will always do my best, but I am at the mercy of your computer when viewing these images.
