Full description
100g of 75% superwash wool 25% nylon yarn in a 4ply sock/fingering weight.
400m per 100g, enough for an adult pair of socks.
Suggested needle size 2-3mm
The wool has been handpainted with pink, purples and grey shades of acid dye, using vinegar as a fixing agent and oven baked to set the colour. The yarn is then rinsed and washed with a wool wash containing a little lanolin before being dried. The hand dyed nature of this item means no two will be identical although colourways may be repeated.
Every attempt is made to remove any residual dye, however there is a possibility that a little may remain. It is recommended that you wash your finished object seperately and keep it away from pale fabrics until you are satisfied with the colourfastness.
This is being sold at a reduced price as a second due to a small patch of yellow dye on one end as shown in the photograph.
The superwash nature of the wool means it is not suitable for felting. It can be machine washed, however hand washing will help to maintain the colours over time.
Photographs are taken to be as representative as possible, but please be aware that the colours may not appear exactly as shown due to variations in lighting and monitor set ups.
For international postage please contact me before purchase.
