All yarns are dyed in a smoke-free environment. We rinse and wash your yarns abundantly, but dark or saturated might bleed a little. Please wash your knits in cold water, with mild soap.

We take great care when photographing our yarns and retouching images to represent their colour accurately. We calibrate all photos in Lightroom using a Retina screen. Please remember, however, that colours may vary from one monitor to another.
