Loading... Please wait...Splendore.....Wicklow. A new base for the shop. This is a lovely fingering weight in 100% Silk. It's a 2 ply and it really is special. Nothing takes dye like 100% Silk. It just glows and glows. Ikat/watercolor dye technique. The Tudor Series. Wicklow is another set location in Ireland. The Wicklow mountains. A winter scene. Colors: Blues, creams, browns, greys, light celadon, a violet blue, a touch of light copper brown, and taupe. Very colorful and it really glows in silk. This is Ron's favorite color so far. Note: With all the pics the cropped detail shot gives the most accurate representation of the true color. Double click it for the best view.

Care:
Handwash cool water, air dry flat.
Note, this is not a superwash yarn so handle with care. 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.
