The same fiber content as our Play base. Super soft Merino in beautiful colors! Great for items that will be worn next to the skin and for mittens or socks that need a little extra durability.

Wash recommendations: For best results, hand wash with a splash of vinegar and lay flat to dry.

This is superwash, so you can wash and dry it without much heat. As this is a very soft base, putting it in the washer and dryer may cause pilling.

I always make sure the skeins rinse 100% clear before I let them dry. However, acid dyes use a weak acid to bind the color to the yarn. If you have water that is toward the base side of the ph scale, that can unbind the color and cause the soak water to be slightly colored. If you add vinegar, which is a weak acid, it will help keep the acid bond and keep your soak water clear.
