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. 

Soft Sock - Fingering

  • Fingering weight

  • 85% Superwash Merino, 15% Nylon

  • 2-ply

  • 360 m - 100 g [394 yards - 3.5 ounces]

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 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 choice and then block/lay it flat to dry, which will improve its longevity.
