If you see something you like, order it ASAP!Be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project since each bag is a different dye lot, and skeins may vary from bag to bag and even skein to skein. To ensure random color distribution, work from two balls of yarn at once, alternating a few rows from each ball. When we dye our yarns, the same formula is used each time but every batch of yarn may vary. The differences from one dye lot to another can be very subtle, or extremely noticeable, specially on variegated yarns. After our quality control team checks the skeins, they go to the labeling section and then are put in bags of five or ten (depending on the yarn). Once the bags get to the yarn stores, most skeins go to different shelves where they can get mixed. The colors shown on photos are illustrated as reference. As mentioned above, they can differ on more or less of one tone, due to the hand-dyed process.
