The majority of my yarns won't ever bleed at all, though some yarns that demand very saturated dyes may show tints of color left in water when you hand or machine wash. If you are worried, just use a "color catcher" while washing.

I only use professional, permanent dyes on my wool, however I advise always hand-washing your fine knits in cool water and a gentle soap no more than once a year and dry flat, no matter the fiber. Even with a Superwash wool, hand-washing will lengthen the lifetime of your item and allow it to keep it's shape much better. If you DO want to put your pieces in the dryer, use the delicate cycle and I usually put a few other items or some dryer balls (wool balls to help things from sticking to the sides of the dryer) in with the item. You can also partly dry in the dryer, and then finish laying it flat to completely dry.

All yarn arrives in a "twisted skein" which comes apart into a "hank" or "loop." If you try to work from this hank, you will have a tangled mess on your hands in no time!

Before you use the yarn, you need to wind it into a ball. You can do this with a winder and swift, having a friend hold the hank for you while you wind it, or using the back of a chair. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqMpAAtaTyI

OOAK means "One of a Kind" -- this is a unique hand-dye that I have done on these yarns only and cannot be repeated -- a truly one of a kind colorway just for you!
