"New Day"
This yarn is the variegated version of our New Day Gradient. It's dyed in a palindrome variegated pattern which means it will be perfect for planned color pooling in knitting, crochet, and weaving when used as a warp. It's a pattern blue and yellow, with subtle peach speckles throughout.
All orders are custom dyed and take 3-5 business days on average to send out so you can choose your base.

Care:
Superwash wool is special because it is treated in such a way that it will not felt the way normal wool does, so it your stitches will remain crisp. That being said, we still suggest hand washing your item when you finish making it, and laying it flat to dry, just as you would with any hand made item.
As with all hand dyed items, we recommend hand washing your yarn/finished item in cool water and laying it flat to dry. We rinse this yarn until the water runs crystal clear, but small amounts of excess dye may rarely come off with the first couple of washings. If this happens, rest assured that it is only excess dye and should not affect the coloring of your yarn in any way. If a large amount of bleeding ever occurs with any of our items, please contact us so we can make it right. We always recommend hand washing hand made items to preserve the longevity of your beautiful work.
We recommend using cool water and a neutral soap, such as baby shampoo, when blocking your finished item if you are knitting or crocheting it.
