Recommendations and Disclaimers
Each one of our skeins is handled with the upmost care. We will never sell you anything, which I wouldn’t want to knit with.
After a skein is naturally dyed, we rinse it until the water runs clear. Then we wash it and it is then hung to dry.
It Although many of our yarns are “Superwash,” we do recommend hand washing, to insure the color fast of your piece. Please remember that your wool pieces do not need to be washed every time they are worn. According to environmental toxin expert and the founder of “Slightly Greener,” Tonya Harris, “a wool sweater can be worn up to five times until a washing is needed.” With proper care, your garment will last for many years.
We do our very best to ensure that our photos are as close to the true color of the yarn. We take a good deal of time to do this, so that you can get an accurate depiction. Please keep in mind that every monitor, screen and display depict colors differently.
Should there be any splicing in the yarn, which comes to us this way and not something that has happened while dying, the natural dye will not be absorbed. To be honest, I have only seen one as of our first collection, and it is in one of the Raspberry Lemonade Skeins. I believe this can be easily rectified, just as you would with any splicing which we all have run into. I am only trying to be upfront and honest.
Please remember that it is virtually impossible to duplicate a color way exactly, when using natural dyes. We will however, do our very best when repeating a color way, to ensure that they are as close as possible to the original color way. As we have pointed out, it is possible, that skeins from the very same dye pot could vary ever so slightly from one another. Honestly, this has not happened to us yet, but should it, we will point this out in the description section of the color way. We suggest that you alternate skeins, to achieve a cohesive color way where you feel it is appropriate.
We appreciate our international customers, buyers are responsible for any customs, import fees or additional charges. We are also not in control of or responsible for any customs or shipping delays.
Although there is a measurement associated with the skeins, we currently do not measure each skein and rely on the measurements provided by our suppliers.
The weight of each skein is approximated.
