Dyed in the Wool

Due to Spincycle's “dyed in the wool” process, each skein produced is unique, even within a dye lot. If you have specific color preferences, please leave a note at checkout and we'll do our best to match your request.

We recommend buying your entire yardage requirement for your project in the same transaction, so that we can hand select skeins that match.

For high contrast colorwork, we recommend steam blocking to avoid color transfer. 

Some dyes are notoriously difficult to set, and may exhaust some color even after Spincycle's final wash. Please keep this in mind if you are combining any hand dyed yarn with a light color in the same project. If you plan to combine a hand dyed yarn, especially a very saturated colorway, with a lighter yarn, we suggest you test your darker skeins for possible color transfer by soaking them first. To wash your knitwear, a quick cold water dip with a no-rinse wool wash like Soak Wash is recommended.

Due to the nature of this yarn, individual skeins may vary from what is shown. We try to capture colors accurately; monitors and browsers differ, and so colors may appear different on different screens.
