Plush DK Sale

Plush DK, a silky soft, 4 ply, superwash extra fine merino wool yarn. This base takes dye extremely and has a luxurious hand. Plush DK is next to skin soft and ideal for next to skin and baby knits. I especially love using it for crochet granny square blankets and sweaters! Yarn Details: 19.5 Micron, Superwash Extra Fine Merino Wool DK Weight, 4ply 218 yards, 100 g This yarn is certified cruelty free. Superwash yarn is technically machine washable in a gentle cycle with like colors, I do however recommend hand washing your knits made with superwash yarn as the washer will tug and pull at your knits causing them to lose their shape or worse rip. I was my knits in the sink using luke warm water and Long Winter Farm Sweater Soap. This soap has lanolin in it which protects the natural fibers. I spot wash any stains and allow my sweater to soak for approximately 30 minutes. Rinse your sweater with cool water if necessary and them gently wring out any extra water, I use my top load washer spin cycle this this, but you can use a towel as well. After the excess water is removed, lay your garment flat to air dry. This fiber was handdyed by ontheround using professional quality acid dyes. I dye my yarn in small batches and no skein will be 100% the same- that's what makes working with hand dyed yarn so fun! I do my very best to accurately photograph my yarns but please note that not all monitors are the same. My yarn is made in my smoke-free, pet free studio in Thomaston, Maine.
