This superwash merino is very soft and lightly springy and can be used in a variety of projects. You will get good stitch definition and will weave into a smooth scarf too. The superwash effect means it won't felt, however, I do have other yarns which do felt.

DYED TO ORDER: This means you can order however much yarn you want and I will dye your yarn after payment is received. It can take up to 15 days to dye, rinse, dry, label, pack, and ship your order. The benefit for having dyed to order yarn is that you can buy what you think you need now, and order more if you find that you need more. This prevents you from having to overbuy yarn for a project, but also gives you the security knowing that more can be made if necessary. There are no dyelots and the nature of hand dyeing means that color pooling is minimized.

I have been a professional hand dyer since 2010 and developing repeatable colorways from the very start. I completed my doctorate in archaeology and focused on textiles, and I'm bringing my expertise to my hand dyeing.
