Please note that this is a small batch hand-dyed yarn and variations across skeins will occur. The beauty of hand-dyed indie yarns is that no two skeins will ever be identical.  For larger projects, it is recommended to alternate skeins.  When ordering online, rest assured we carefully ensure each order is packed with yarns from the same batch.

Hand-dyed on Wiradjuri country, central west NSW.
