COLOUR NOTES

Blackened walnut is a warm brown which has been overdyed with black. It works well with other blackened colours for a subdued palette, and is gorgeous when paired with pinks and purples. Semi solid yarns have tonal variations giving interest to projects.

Hand dyed yarn varies between skeins and batches. Please ensure you buy enough yarn to complete your project and alternate between skeins for multi skein projects.

Batch 2207

SWATCHES AND GAUGE

This yarn works well with many needle and hook sizes, so we've created a page filled with swatch and gauge information.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

The wool in this yarn has been superwash treated so can be machine washed on a wool cycle at 30 degrees C. Please test a swatch in your machine before washing your finished work - machines and detergents vary and it's better to know this before throwing in something you've spent hours making. Hand washing is the best way to keep items looking good for as long as possible. Find out more about caring for hand dyed yarn.
