Product Description

Bridger Lace ....Cascara... 80/10/10 MCN base. A lovely MCN in a heavy lace weight. It is extremely soft, it has a wonderful hand and makes beautiful shawls. A wonderful base. Dapple Solid dye technique. Dream Garden Series: Cascara is a type of berry. Non edible but interesting. Similar to a Black Berry in color. Colors: Purples, dark reddish browns and plumes. Reminds me of Bearded Iris but it has more of the reddish plume undertones. I think this would make a lovely shawl with Magenta/Purple beads for a little bling. 

Do King's eat grapes? 
Colors: Coppers, browns, blues, purples, a touch of dusty mauve. Built up in layers for those subtle effects we love. Have you ever noticed all of the colors that are in various grapes?  It's really amazing.

Care:
Handwash cool water, air dry flat.
Note, this is superwash so it can go in the machine but I still prefer to hand wash for longevity. Color bleeding can be normal for hand dyed yarns. I take special care when setting dyes and I thoroughly rinse the yarns. Blues and reds can be difficult to completely exhaust. A good tip is to add some distilled white vinegar to your final rinse water as this will minimize or stop the bleeding. I also recommend using a gentle wool wash such as Soak, Eucalan. I always use luke warm water for my knits and handwash even if it is superwash.

All of my yarns are dyed with professional dyes for light and wash fastness. I strive to take the best pictures possible but please remember that computer screens may vary with color.
