Dyed To Order: DK Weight Merino Yarns

This is a Dyed To Order Listing for the DK Merino Base Yarns. Turnaround time is approximately 2 weeks. Your order will ship within 2 weeks from the time you place your order. If you order other items with the dyed to order listings, your other items will ship with dyed to order items. 

Please order all that you need for your project. Your yarn will be dyed just for you to make sure you get the best color matches possible. Mixed dye lots will not match.

There are TWO yarn options available in this listing. 

Delightful DK (bottom skein in the image above) is an ultra soft DK weight yarn made of washable merino wool. It is next to skin soft with a balanced construction that is perfect for textured projects with excellent stitch definition. The nature of superwashed yarns means they take color in a very saturated way and have a bit of "brightness" compared to their untreated counterparts. 

Organic Merino DK (top skein in the image above) is ultra soft and lovely for next to skin projects. Organically grown and produced, this non superwash yarn is wonderful to work with and to wear. The color will be slightly more muted than its superwash counterpart because the dye soaks more fully into the fibers. This yarn will felt/full if it is not hand washed. 

Hand wash, lay flat to dry. Test for color fastness by blocking your swatch in cool, plain water. We recommend using color catchers for projects that include more than one color of yarn.
