Hand Dyed
Superwash Merino / Tencel 
Woody Top
This superfine Superwash Merino is 19 microns soft. It was professionally cleaned, combined with 50% tencel (environmentally friendly lyocell process from cellulose) and pulled through combs to make a smooth continuous top. I use ProChem and Cushing dyes to make my colorways, which seems to soften this shimmery combed top even more.
Lovely to hold, it spins beautifully. Imagine this running through your hands and seeing the colors blend and change. Split the snake lengthwise and spin at 36-40 wpi. Then ply the two bobbins together and knit up into a unique pair of socks. Also makes great baby garments.

ONE Pound for $45.50
"Hi Susan, I thought you might like to know I won a prize at the State Fair from roving I got from you last January. It was the merino/tencel; I spun it finely and made it into an entrelac scarf. I got only a third on it, with a nice comment - and frankly, I'm going to enjoy wearing it so much that winning anything on it after having so much fun with it is gravy! Thanks for dyeing such lovely roving!Best," Karey

NEW Get your Panda in a Colorway
The bamboo part of the blend only takes a little bit of the dye leaving lighter streaks which spins to a spectacular yarn.
12.75 per 4oz / 113g ball
All of our colorways are dyed in small dyepots containing only 8 -16 oz (227-454g) of fiber each. We try to stay ahead but guessing which colorway is going to be most popular each week is difficult. We, therefore, usually dye to order which means your hand dyed fiber may take a week or two to get out to you, and at holiday times may take a bit longer. Also we really do not have dyelot numbers. It is best to order the amount you need to get the best matches.
Black & Blue face Leicester
is also dyed in coordinating semi solid ombrés.

"The order got here today and I am totally in love with the rusty tones in the Plummy colorway. The online colors couldn't do it justice (at least on my laptop). I'll be ordering that next - after I spin the 5-fiber sampler and decide just which fiber to order it in...
Thanks again. I really do love your colorways and am amazed at the speed at which things arrive in my postbox when I order from you!"

"I don’t think I’ve ever spun a fiber I love more, or colours I love more than this stuff! And knitting it is pure heaven..." Megan R.
