Colourway: Change Lobsters Again

" `You may not have lived much under the sea--' (`I haven't,' said Alice)-- `and perhaps you were never even introduced to a lobster--' (Alice began to say `I once tasted--' but checked herself hastily, and said `No, never') `--so you can have no idea what a delightful thing a Lobster Quadrille is!' "
Lewis Carroll

Another in my series of 20 colourways inspired by Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland.

All wool is hand dyed in single batches then washed and dried ready to be knit up into your own unique creation.

1 x 100g hank of Patsy: 100% Superwash Merino 8 ply DK weight wool for hand or machine knitting.

Each 100g hank is about 273 yards / 250 meters.

Gauge: 22 x 30 = 4 inches using 4mm / US 6 needles

Suitable for machine washing but hand washing is preferable. Dry flat.

While I have tried to capture the colours as best I can, please be aware colours may vary from those shown here.

Due to the nature of hand dyeing, colour saturation and placement may vary between different skeins of the same colourway. If you are using more than one to skein to complete your project I recommend alternating between the skeins for the best overall colour matching.

Ever had a wash load turn pink because of one tiny red sock? Although all wool has been washed thoroughly after dyeing, it is advisable to wash your creations separately the first time, in case any residual dye remains. The vibrancy of your wool will not be affected in the rare event that there is any run off. I don't expect the dyes to run, but I make mention out of caution as I would hate for my wool to be the 'red sock'!
