Embellish your next project with an array of gorgeous natural dyed yarn in a variety of weights and textures.
This listing is for a lucky dip sampler texture pack in random colours of my choosing. Perfect for weaving, mending, dolls, flowers, embroidery, embellishment and other small projects.
The selection of yarn will range in size of a few yards to approx. 20 yards. You will receive 50g total yarn in varying lengths hand dyed on a mix of wool bases from lace to aran weight. A variety of natural dyes will be included and your mix may include colours from botanical (both home grown and commercially sourced) and insect dyes (cochineal).
The actual mix sent may not match that pictured and will be a random selection of what I have in stock.
Potential yarn bases may include, but are not limited to:
Patsy DK: 100% Superwash Merino
Choufunga Sock : 75/25 Superwash Merino Wool & Nylon
Banter DK - 40/40/20 British Shetland/BFL/Alpaca DK
Cashmulmerino Sock - 70/20/10 Superwash Merino, Mulberry Silk & Cashmere
100% At Birkhill House CIC Alpaca 4ply
Plus, a variety of 100% British Wool Yarn such as: Sheltand, Kent Romney & Dorset Horn
All wool is hand dyed in single or small batches then washed and dried ready to be knit up into your own unique creation. All yarns were pre mordanted with Alum prior to dyeing. Different fibres naturally take colours differently, resulting in a beautiful array of complimentary tones and texture.
While I have tried to capture the colours as best I can, please be aware colours may vary from those shown here. All natural dyes have varying light and wash fastness and you may want to consider this when planning your project.
