Care
Wet-Blocking Care Instructions
Your project isn’t truly complete until it’s had its first wash! Here’s how to help our yarns reach their full potential:
- Fill a sink or basin with cold water.
- Add a small amount of no-rinse wool wash.
- Submerge your knitted item, gently squeezing out any air bubbles to ensure it stays fully underwater.
- Soak for up to 10 minutes. While our dyes are tested for colorfastness, some dyes are notoriously difficult to set and may release a small amount of excess color. Using cold water, gentle wool wash, and a short soak will help prevent color redeposit on light-colored fibers.
- Drain the water.
- Gently lift your knitted item from the water and remove excess moisture by rolling it between clean, dry towels with light pressure.
- Lay flat and shape to air dry.
For projects with contrasting colors, we recommend steam blocking to avoid any color transfer.

Appreciated the prompt and personalized delivery.The amethyst yarn is gorgeous, love the melange of color(s) and its heft and texture. Am going through Ravelry and have identified some potential projects!
A glorious heathered purple that might be crying out for cables.
Rustic but soft. Beautiful color
This is a beautiful color yarn and knits up very nicely. I'm just starting a project with it so no pics available at this time. I was intrigued by the story on how the mill made it. The one downside to this yarn is that it is not as soft as there others. It is a subtle decrease in softness and I think with repeated washing and use it will soften up. So I'm going with it!
Amethyst is a gorgeous color! I don’t know yet how I’m going to use my two skeins, but for now, I’m enjoying looking at it! 💜
I am very pleased with the yarn and follow you on your videos. Love hearing your stories, seeing the mill, getting to meet the team etc. keep up the great work!
Super soft and the color is gorgeous. So gorgeous in fact I ordered the yarn without knowing what I want to make with it!! I’m sure it will create a wonderful garment. ❤️
I love the blended colors.
