Product Description

Mini Mica....Sky Dream. This is a lovely fingering weight in Superwash Merino 50%/ Silk 50% blend. This yarn is really nice with a beautiful twist. The silk glimmers and glows and the fact that the merino is superwash makes this a high performance yarn. It's Micas little sister. Dream Garden Series: Subtle Ikat/Watercolor dye technique. A new colorway. I really wanted a special lighter blue in the MM base when I realized I had never done one. Colors: Three soft blues kissed with violet and lavender and lilac. I'm very pleased with the results. Hope you like it too.

Dream Garden Series
This is inspired by a Sunflower called Moulin Rouge. I love that flower. I became obessed with trying to get the color. Colors:
Hot Pink base but let that scare you off, it was then over dyed in layers with rich browns and more pinks again and again. I don't know if I can repeat this one. Clearly I spend far too much time on this color but I do love the results. Think rich Chocolate covered cherries.

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; it will 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.
