This skein of hand spun yarn has some of my favourite hues within it! Greens, greys, browns and a smidge of golds, make for a fabulous colour palette! I have discounted this skein by 10$ due to a break in the yarn, my swift was spinning a little too fast during the re skeining process and sadly snapped in one place.

This 100% Untreated Merino fibre was spun up into a fingering weight, 2 ply yarn, using my Ashford E-Spinner. I used 22 Micron Untreated Merino Fibre to spin this yarn. You’ll need to be mindful of sharp temperature increases and decreases when washing this yarn, as it could felt if burned with hot water or put in the dryer. Some dye bleeding during the soaking process is normal with untreated wool. 

This skein is 130 grams and approximately 655 yards. A perfect amount of yardage for a contrast colour in a sweater, or shawl. The yarn itself is soft, and has great bounce to it, the colours are muted and soft.

Hand spun yarn is special to work with, as it really does have a personality of it’s own, compared to commercially spun yarn. It is, by nature, imperfect, making your hand knits even more wonderful and unique! 

Hand wash in cold water, lay flat to dry to preserve the dyes and quality of the fabric.
