Choose your base and how you would like it presented. For all bases except for the Corriedale Top please choose either 'skein' or 'cake' and for the Corriedale Top please select 'N/A'. If you choose to have your yarn sent to you in a cake there is a fee of $5 per cake. Once your yarn is caked it is not refundable so please choose carefully :)

Colour Description
'Dusk Til Dawn' is a gentle dusky pink with peach and lavender tones.
Small batch hand-dyed.
Colours will vary depending on the base and whether or not it is superwash. There is to be expected a smaller degree of variation between skeins of the same base as that is the nature of a hand-dyed product. I have attempted to show the colourways as accurately as possible in the corresponding photographs but some variety is normal between batches and of course when viewing on a screen. Use these images as a guide and feel free to contact me with any questions or make a time to pop in and see the colours and yarns in the flesh.

Notes:
The time between ordering your yarn and receiving it can vary from 2 - 8 weeks depending on whether I have the base in stock or if I need to order it. I will contact you to let you know if I think your order is going to take more than 4 weeks.
Please read my policies section here before placing your order.
Small batch, hand-dyed yarn from my little studio in Lower Hutt, Aotearoa/New Zealand. Everything, from sourcing the yarn to packaging it and shipping it to you, is done with love and care by hand. The nature of hand-dyed yarn is that no two skeins are exactly the same, creating beautifully nuanced colourways. I advise alternating skeins while knitting with any hand-dyed yarn for consistency.
I source finest quality, fully traceable and mulesing-free, ethically, sustainably farmed yarns from New Zealand and abroad. My Merino comes from New Zealand and/or South America and my Silk comes from Indonesia. All other countries of origin are specified in the yarn descriptions.
The dyes I use are made in Australia and New Zealand. They are acid dyes that are used for dyeing protein-based fibre (such as wool and silk). I take every care to use only the quantities necessary to create my colourways so I can fully exhaust the dyebath.
