This merino/silk roving is incredibly soft and squishy. It slides right past your fingers in the draft (for all you spinners out there) into a pure, bouncy yarn. Ply it into a beautiful yarn that can be used to create anything from a neck cowl to a hat.
Colors include true golden yellow, burgundy, brown, blue and blue-green. Seemingly "blank" parts of the roving have light hues of yellow-brown and tan. It truly is OOAK due to the nature of the dye process. This one particular outcome cannot be repeated exactly.

My dyeing methods are exclusive to crock-pots with some hand-painting techniques without the use of plastic wrap and microwaves. I use professional, colorfast acid dyes to ensure the color quality. Do not be suprised however if a bit of color bleeds out in the soaking process to set your twist if you intend to spin with this roving.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS:
Hand-wash in lukewarm water with mild soap
Lay flat to dry
This material WILL felt if adgitated
Special note: I try my best to describe the colors in this yarn. However, monitors from different computers vary in their ability to convey true colors. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
