Description

This is a very special yarn made from 50% rayon and 50% cotton. Rayon (which is also called viscose) is a natural fibre made from wood pulp. It shimmers like silk and has great drape. The fibres have been spun separately and plied together, so each retains its own characteristic – cotton for deep colour and grip; rayon for glitz and drape. The yarn knits like a DK. I’ve painted it in glamourous shades of red and purple.

Each skein has approximately 90m/98yds. Seven 50g skeins available – 350g in total (630m/686yds). This listing is for one skein.

Please keep in mind that the colours from most plant fibres, such as cotton, bamboo, hemp, rayon, etc. may bleed for a few washes, so for best results keep wet yarns separate at all times.


The "small" print:
My hand-dyed wools are non-repeatable runs, which means once they’re gone, they’re gone for good. Please hand wash your wool with care. Wool labeled “superwash” you can cold machine wash. I take great care to achieve beautiful results that are lightfast and colourfast, but sometimes there is a tiny amount of colour running out of the wool at first, so wash your item separately.

NOTE:
I take commissions.

Please contact me if you live outside of New Zealand.

I will combine postage when possible.

When choosing colours please keep in mind that not all monitors show colours the same.

If you’re not satisfied with your wool you can return it to me in original condition, i. e. with label attached and at your own cost in exchange for different wool or a refund.

I’m a great believer in avoiding waste and recycling. That’s why I use recycled packaging materials wherever possible.

If you’re happy with your wool, please let me know and don’t forget to place feedback.
