Can these yarns be washed and dried?

Please don't let your wears get stinky! :) Yes, my yarn is perfectly washable but do please follow the care instructions you will find on your labels. Darker colors may bleed slightly on the first few washes. I highly encourage you to not combine very light colors with very dark colors, and it's rarely a good idea to wash hand dyed yarn in water any warmer than lukewarm. In most cases, it's best to lay your items flat to dry and avoid the harshness of the dryer or the tendency for things to snag your beautiful work!

What if the colors look different when I receive my package than they looked on my screen?

While I make every attempt to accurately depict colors with my photography, no two electronic devices are alike in the way the colors will appear to you when you're shopping. Please also refer to my "Streak Meter Rating" that I provide with every color to get a feel for how much color variation you will find in my semi solids. It's also an excellent idea to view a listing on 2 separate screens (1 mobile and 1 desktop, if possible) prior to ordering. If you love the color twice, you're likely to love it even more when you receive it! That being said, if your yarn arrives and you aren't in love with the colors, contact me ASAP about sending it back for a refund. If it comes back in its original condition I'm happy to exchange it!

Will projects made with your cotton yarn shrink?

The short answer is, "not if washed according to the care instructions provided". This yarn should be washed in cool water and laid flat to dry. You might be interested to know, though, that the yarn is handled at very high temperatures for a brief period while dyeing and rinsing, so any minimal shrinkage that could happen has probably already occurred well before you're using the yarn in a project.

How long will it take to receive my order?

Most orders will ship in 3-5 business days, so please add that time frame to the time it takes the USPS (First Class for smaller orders and Priority Mail for larger ones) to deliver your package to you. This is anywhere from 3-5 days for domestic (US) up to 21 days to Canada, and 4 weeks to Australia. Potential shipping delays will be longer and more frequent around the holidays. Occasionally, I will have everything you ordered on-hand to ship right away. If this is the case for your order, your items should ship in 1-2 business days but if I have yarn to dye-to-order for you, it will take longer. Please note that the drying time alone for indie-dyed fibers (especially my light worsted weight yarn) is 36-48 hours.

How different are your different dye lots?

This will vary from color to color but darker shades typically have more variation between dye lots than lighter colors. Please be aware that I dye in VERY small batches, in order to give every strand of fiber the TLC it deserves and to ensure even distribution within each batch. At this time I am only able to offer 960 yards (16 oz) of the same dye lot. If you are in need of more than 960 yards of the same lot, I might be able to accommodate your request but I'm currently not dyeing in larger batches than that. If your project uses high amounts of the same color, I recommend alternating skeins every few rows. Hand dyed yarn skeins are truly one-of-a-kind!

Why is hand dyed yarn more expensive than what my craft store carries?

In short, it's all the love! Hand dyed fibers like mine are typically dyed in very small batches and given lots of special attention and handling. Every strand of yarn you'll find in my shop is in the care of my hands for no less than 3 hours. This ensures accurate and even color distribution and absorption, complete rinsing of excess dye and elimination of salt residue, and the time needed to beautifully wind, measure for length, and weigh every skein of yarn prior to packaging and shipping. You won't find any surprises like knots or splicing in my yarns, only beautiful color and predictable quality and softness.

Supplies for making crafts
Materials: 100 Percent Pima Cotton, Fiber Reactive Dye, Hours of Love and Care

😃 It's finally here, friends! Pima Cotton, one of the most durable, breathable, washable, sustainable, wrinkle-resistant, softest PLANT-based fibers in the world and I'm delighted to be dyeing it for you, at long last!

To start us off, I will be offering it first in these semisolid mini skeins, and giving you the ability to customize your own kits. Order anywhere from 6 to 30 mini skeins (the more you order, the more you save) in any combination of colors you'd like!

This yarn is perfect for any soft, lightweight crochet or knitting project, especially baby blankets! It also would work well for needlepoint, some forms of weaving, and macrame. The beautiful stitch definition it provides also makes it ideal for amigurumi projects! ✅

Important notes about these mini skeins and how to order them:
🌱 - Each skein is 54 yds and approximately 23 grams.
🌱 - I will not be individually labeling these mini skeins OR tracking dye lots, so be sure to order enough of each color in your project! If you order multiples up to 5 of the same color they WILL come from the same batch, they just won't be labeled that way.
🌱 - As with virtually all hand dyed fibers, the recommended care instructions for my yarn are: Hand wash cold; lay flat in a single layer to dry/block.
🌱 - Every order of Pima cotton minis will contain a care card in place of labels, with detailed care instructions, specs, and gauge.
🌱 - Be sure to scroll through all photos to best view the colors you are comparing/selecting, and know that screens can cause variations in color.
🌱 - If you'd like a photo of a proposed kit you are customizing before placing an oder, simply send me a message and I will send you up to 2 photos on my next available day with good lighting.
🌱 - Colors vary greatly in their degree of streaks vs no streaks!
🌱 - Colors with the MOST streaks: greens, teals & some blues
🌱 - Colors with few or NO streaks: light yellows, oranges, black, light purple(s)
🌱 - Is it DK or sport weight? Well, technically its dimensions (weight per yard) make it a DK weight yarn BUT it is so tightly twisted that its gauge is more that of a sport weight yarn, which leads me to my next point...
🌱 - Gauge: approx. 22 sts/30 rows per 4" on US 4-7 needles or E-G hook (3.5-4 mm)
🌱 - This listing offers a bulk discount, the more yarn you order, the more you save. Order 6 mini skeins and get them fro $5.99 each or order 30 for pricing of $5.33 each!

😍 - All of my plant-based yarns are dyed in my smoke-free, meticulously clean home, using professional grade fiber-reactive dyes.
😍 - Colors are fixed via chemical reaction to provide long-lasting vibrancy and permanence.
😍 - These yarns are dyed in small (8-16 oz.) batches. Because of this, there will be slight color variations from one dye lot to the next. PLEASE ensure you order enough of each color you plan to use as if you return for more, it might look a little different!
😍 - Please avoid using very dark colors in close proximity to very light colors as there could be some color bleed between light and dark, particularly if washing in warmer water.
