Wash-It Merino Worsted Natural – 1-Lb Value Pack
100% Superwash Merino wool. Worsted weight, 4-ply.
Approximately 115g (4.06 oz), 183m (200yd).
Gauge: 3.75-4.5mm needles. 4.5 to 5 stitches = 1 inch, or as pattern requires.
Laundering: Machine or handwash cool, tumble dry low or dry flat.
A good choice for easy-launder mittens, scarves, sweaters and especially garments for children.
This yarn takes dye beautifully, whether you are using acid dyes, food colouring, Kool-aid or even natural dyes. Just bear in mind that Superwash yarn strikes with acid dyes so quickly that it can be very tricky to get a decent solid tone. Use that to your advantage like we do, to get interesting semi-solids or go crazy with hand painting. We highly recommend this yarn to first-time dyers!

Weld, Dried Chopped
Dried and chopped tops from Reseda luteola.
Use on protein or cellulose fibres. An ancient source of excellent bright yellows. Pre-mordanting recommended. Alum/c.o.t. mordant gives good results. Use at 30-50% WOF for medium shades.
TO USE: soak in water overnight, then simmer mixture at 160-175°F for 1 hour. Cool and strain. Add more water if needed and enter pre-mordanted fibre. Hold at a 160-175°F for one hour. The brightest yellows develop at these cool temperatures.
Light & washfastness: very good.

Wool 60/Flax 40 (Top)
60% Wool / 40% Flax
Very clean combed top in an interesting heathered blend of ash-grey, soft tan and cream. Staple length is around 5 to 6 inches. This blend is softer than you might imagine, with what is obviously a Finewool of some type and a good grade of flax. It seems well-prepared and should be easy to spin. We wonder if it might just work for lace weight yarn. Feels plenty soft enough for midrange to outerwear garments.
This could be dyed with acid dyes for a streaky effect. Might it work for felting??

Worsted-One Merino Natural – 1-Lb Value Pack
100% Superwash Merino. Worsted weight, 1-ply.
Approximately 115g (4.06 oz), 205m (225yd).
Gauge: 3.75-5mm needles. 4.5 to 5 stitches = 1 inch, or as pattern requires.
Laundering: Machine or handwash cool, tumble dry low or dry flat.
A good choice for easy-launder mittens, scarves, sweaters and especially garments for children. This is an extremely soft, gently-spun single-ply yarn that almost resembles a Lopi-style yarn but without the scratchiness. It's slightly thick-and-thin. Because of the gentle spinning we've found the skeins sometimes have a knot or two where they have been repaired during spinning at the mill.
This yarn takes dye beautifully, whether you are using acid dyes, food colouring, Kool-aid or even natural dyes. Just bear in mind that Superwash yarn strikes with acid dyes so quickly that it can be very tricky to get a decent solid tone. Use that to your advantage like we do, to get interesting semi-solids or go crazy with hand painting. We highly recommend this yarn to first-time dyers!. If you reskein your yarns, do so slowly with this yarn or snagging on the swift will cause breaks.
