This yarn is dyed on my Saturday base, a perfect yarn for luxurious soft socks. It contains mostly wool, which we all know is a super fiber that wicks away moisture, gets warmer when wet, is flame retardant and most important will keep your body parts toasty warm. It also contains a little bit of nylon, and that makes sure that, after all that loving work you have put into your garment, it will last a long time. But the real interesting thing here is that it contains cashmere, and this makes the yarn very soft and warm, it is amazing what 10% of goat fiber can do. This yarn is also machine washable on a gentle or wool cycle.
Here at Friday Studios I use quality acid dyes that are heat set into the yarn, it is then washed with a mild wool friendly detergent, rinsed and dried.
