One of a kind 'BEJEWELED' superwash merino/nylon Foot Notes UNSPUN pencil roving
Description
80% superwash merino wool and 20% nylon super fluffy pencil roving! This roving is unbelievably soft and very smooth, and since it is pencil roving, there is no need to draft - simply enjoy your spinning and watching the colors meld. It has a little very fine nylon blended into it to help it wear well, but it is difficult if not impossible to feel the nylon - not even remotely scratchy or stiff. You get the benefit of tough as nails hard-wearing yarn after all your hard work AND the extra-plush ultrasmooth butter softness of beautiful merino yarn to knit (and wear). The pencil roving comes in a generous 4 ounce lots.4 ounces!
There are 4 skeins in this one of a kind dyelot. This listing is for one of these skeins.
Professional acid dyes and optimized reaction conditions - ultrafast colors that don't bleed. The dyes react via a hydration reaction mechanism with the amide bond in the wool. As a PhD chemist, I optimized the reaction conditions to drive the reaction to completion, which means that there is very little, if any, free dye left to bleed.
One skein should be enough for most pairs of socks. If you need more than 4 ounces, contact me and I can dye up any amount you desire. I keep a template skein on hand and all dyes are custom mixed using reproducible formulas, so the consistency between dyelots is quite high.
