While this yarn is machine washable, I always recommend hand washing to extend the life of your hand knits. Dry flat.

As each skein of hand-dyed yarn is truly unique, yarn may vary slightly from photo. Expect subtle color variations between skeins. It is always best to alternate skeins on projects calling for more than one skein of yarn. Dyes are color and light fast and should not run or fade.

All orders are thoughtfully packaged (suitable for gift giving) in tissue paper and tied with lovely charcoal gray and white twine.
