Our perfect merino/bamboo blend laceweight yarn with its dreamy sheen and lovely twist is perfect for lace shawls, or hold it alongside a fluffy yarn for a dreamy cloud-like fabric... Inspired by a walk along the beach at the end of a hot day; ice cream cones, buckets and spades, kites, and beach cricket. And the most beautiful light that turned the blue sky pinky mauve above the dunes. There are just two skeins of this shade and once they're gone, that's it! Hand wash in cool water to preserve the fibres and the vibrancy of the dye. As with all small-batch, hand-dyed yarn that doesn't have dye lots, we also recommend knitting alternate rows from two skeins when working on larger projects to avoid noticeable changes between skeins. We use professional Procion dyes to dye plant fibres and do our best to exhaust every dye bath but plant fibres dyed in this way can continue to release dye after rinsing so please bear this in mind if you are mixing shades in a single project. We reuse water wherever possible to reduce any further environmental impact. weight: lace fibre: 80% wool - superwash merino, 20% bamboo needle size: 2.00-5.00mm depending on gauge required metres: 800m per 100g skein care: hand wash in cool water with gentle wool detergent
