Mercerized Merino wool is locally grown in process in the US. Mercerization enhances the hand of Merino wool through a process that removes scales on wool fiber followed by adding a thin layer of micro silicone. It has a super smooth hand similar to cashmere that is soft enough for garments worn directly against the skin.
A Care of your hand knit garments
Please hand wash cold or lukewarm water and lay flat to dry. Even though this yarn does contain superwash merino, I do always recommend that you hand wash your knitwear. We use colorfast acid dyes for dying our yarn, and rinse until water runs clear. There may be a chance that some dye may bleed slightly in the first wash of your finished item. This does sometimes happen for speckled yarn and stubborn colors that are prone to bleed. For the first couple of washes, hand wash separately to be sure that no further bleeding.
There are no dye lots. We always try to sell from same dye lots but if not sure, we recommend blending the skeins as you work. Color saturation can differ from different dyelots.
