Washing instructions:
To ensure your product does not 'bleed', please rinse your product in a basin of cool water and allow to dry before use. For best results, hand-knit items should be hand-washed in cool water and laid flat to dry.


Yarn dyeing is done at home in my back room and air-dried by God. We are a non-smoking home with a cat that roams around our back room and yard. He is afraid of the dyeing equipment and special care is taken so that he does not get onto the yarn - he's too old and arthritic to jump up on the table anyway.

Due to the nature of hand dyed yarns being unique, the skein you receive may vary slightly from the photo shown. If you have questions about the skein, please contact me and I will answer any questions you may have.
