Knitter and Crocheter's dream yarn. Note: due to hand dye there maybe some areas that might be lighter or darker within the hank. Each hank is individual and impossible to create a hank like another even in the same dye batch.
Swish is the superwash of knitters dreams! By selecting high-grade Merino wool (20.5 microns), we have been able to produce a machine-washable yarn that is super soft - definitely worthy of being worn against a baby's skin. Just the ticket for childrens clothes, afghans, charity knitting, and gift knitting. No need to worry about the care your knitting will receive since this yarn can be machine washed and will come out even softer than before!
For best machine wash results, turn the garment inside out (when possible), and wash separately in cold water on a delicate cycle. You may want to wash projects made from darker colors by themselves for the first few washes in case the yarn bleeds a bit.
However, this dyer recommend handwashing in cold water and lay flat to dry out of the sun for a longer lasting garment.
Each skein is their dye lot--to ensure your garment is consistant order enough of this set to complete your project. If needing more or something different please message me--I welcome custom orders at no extra charge.
If wanting a cake--this service is free--just leave me a message in the notes.
