Rockfall - Naturally dyed 4ply Superwash Bluefaced Leicester yarn with Donegal Nep

A lovely 4ply British Bluefaced Leicester yarn with Donegal Nep. This yarn is Superwash treated which is a process that prevents the fibres felting as easily. The treatment is highly regulated, and any by-products are removed before the water is reintroduced to the environment. The resin used in the process will biodegrade along with the wool at the end of the fibre's life. None of the yarns contain nylon.

Fibre content: 85% British Bluefaced Leicester / 15% Donegal Nep

Skein weight: 100g

Skein length: approximately 400m

The yarn is dyed using natural extracts to produce vibrant colours.

Care should be taken when laundering your garment, use cool/warm water with a PH neutral wash. Many natural dyes are sensitive to varying PH levels and minerals and therefore using a product which is more acidic or alkaline could cause the original colour to shift. It is recommended to not use fabric conditioner with your yarn as it can occasionally cause the colour to bleed during laundering. Dry garments flat and out of direct sunlight to prevent undue fading.

It is recommended to wash dark colours separately and if using dark and light colours together, it is advised to test a sample prior to use. Yarns are carefully rinsed to remove dyes, however, on occasion, a small amount of excess dye could rinse out in the first wash.

Please note, colours can vary according to different computer monitors. Care has been taken during photography to represent the colours as accurately as possible.
