Dye Sink Skein - Soft Sock - Fingering Weight
What is a Dye Sink Skein:
To better the environment, I am always looking for small ways to conserve water, reduce waste, and minimize my footprint. During the dyeing process, a lot of dye gets left on the tools or in my measuring cups. I save this dye, combine colours and create a beautiful, unique colorway.
Please note, as these colorways are not measured or recorded, I am unable to recreate this exact colorway again. Your skein is special and unique.
What is the difference between One of a Kind and Dye Sink Leftovers:
One of a Kind: a trial colorway that is intentionally created but not brought into the regular lineup.
Dye Sink Leftovers: a unique skein and colorway created with leftover dyes and not reproducible.

85% Superwash Merino, 15% Nylon

A strong 2 ply base with a lot of definition. 2 ply base works fantastic in socks and the added nylon gives a super strong yarn, perfect for any project.
After dyeing, the yarn is thoroughly rinsed and soaked the yarn in a lanolin-based wool wash. Slight bleeding may still occur.
Recommended Care: No two skeins are identical. If you need more than one skein for your project, alternate rows to ensure a good colour match. It is recommended to soak your finished object in cool water with a wool wash of your choosing and block/lay flat to dry to improve longevity.
