This listing is for Lab Partner credit in a future episode of Dyepot Weekly on the ChemKnits Tutorials YouTube Channel plus one surprise 100 g skein of yarn dyed in this video. These videos will be published sometime between May - December 2024. I will ship your yarns soon as the video editing is complete and message you the date your video will be published. Please allow 8-10 weeks for processing.

What is a Lab Partner? You will get multiple shout outs during the YouTube video itself and in the video description for supporting the content. All Lab Partners will receive 100 g of yarn dyed in your featured Dyepot Weekly episode in a surprise colorway. If you would like me to dye 200 g of yarn in your video, make sure to also purchase this listing: https://www.etsy.com/listing/604930368/dpw-lab-partner-add-on-dyepot-weekly-lab (Please note, if you pick a different yarn base from the add-on there will be a difference between the two skeins in either base or colorway.)

I will design a dyeing experiment with you in mind to create some stunning yarn just for you. In the notes to seller, please specify your least favorite colors so I can avoid using them in your video. The dyeing technique and final colors will be a surprise. Unless you specify in the "notes to seller", I will assume that you love all colors and will use your Shipping Name for the shout outs. Dyes may include food coloring, acid dyes, fiber reactive dyes, or even unconventional materials!

Lab Partnership is available for individuals and not businesses/social media accounts. If your business would like to sponsor a video, please reach out to discuss terms.

Processing Time: Due to the pandemic processing times are longer than usual. Please allow 8-10 weeks for me to dye your yarn and edit the episode of Dyepot Weekly. I will ship your yarn as soon as I have finished editing the episode of Dyepot Weekly. You will potentially receive your yarn before the video has been published, but I will let you know the publication date and episode title as soon as your yarn is ready to go. It might take more than 10 weeks for the video to be released, but you will receive your yarn and the publication date within the 8-10 week time frame.

**Please note that the techniques, dyes used, and final colors will be a surprise.**
I will take your color preferences into account while designing the video. Please include your least favorite colors in the "notes to seller" so I can avoid them.

There are no returns or exchanges on mystery or dyed to order yarns.

All ChemKnits Creations yarns are hand dyed in a smoke-free, cat-free, and dog friendly home. I prewash all fiber to remove excess dye, but some bleeding may occur on the first few washes. Please do a swatch test if you are concerned about color bleeding. I recommend washing hand dyed yarns alone or with like colors for the first few washes.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
*CAN YOU SHOUT OUT MY INSTAGRAM/YOUTUBE/ETSY/RAVELRY SHOP?*
No. The Lab Partner listing is to shout out individuals only and cannot be used to promote a business or social media account. If you would like me to promote your business or social media, we would need to upgrade to an official sponsorship - please message me to discuss business options. I reserve the right to decline a shout out name or to request that we change it to something else. My default shout out is to shout out to the first name of the shipping recipient. Other options include initials (R.F.B.), Location (a R. from Massachusetts or a viewer from Massachusetts), or even anonymous.

*WHAT ABOUT COTTON/SILK/OR ACRYLIC YARNS*
Please Private Message me if you would like to request an alternate yarn base. Availability will be based on what I currently have in stock and may result in an increased cost which we will discuss via PM.

*I HAVE A GREAT IDEA FOR A VIDEO - WILL YOU DO THIS SPECIFIC PROJECT?*
Maybe. If there is a particular idea you really want to Lab Partner, please reach out to me in Private Message to discuss before you purchase this listing. DO NOT leave a request at checkout without discussing it with me first - I might not be able to accommodate it. Even with video suggestions, final yarn colors will be a surprise.

*CAN YOU DYE YARN IN THESE EXACT COLORS?*
The final yarn colors will always be a surprise. I take color preferences into account as I'm designing the video - and will avoid any colors that you indicate. Feel free to let me know the general vibe that you like (pastel, neon, cool tones, etc). Since I frequently try techniques for the first time in the Dyepot Weekly series, sometimes I am surprised by the final colors myself.

*WILL YOU DUPLICATE A PAST VIDEO FOR ME?*
No, I won't film a Lab Partner Dyepot Weekly Episode to duplicate a skein of yarn I dyed in the past. I do have some custom dyed-to-order listings, so please check out the rest of the shop.

That being said, if you have a favorite video, feel free to let me know. There might be a variation of the technique in my queue that would be perfect for your video!

**CAN I PICK THE DATE MY VIDEO AIRS?**
No. I have a complicated filming schedule and reserve slots specifically for the Lab Partner videos. I cannot guarantee that your video will air in any particular month, but feel free to reach out to see if there is a slot open. I am happy to accomodate requests if I can.

Please contact me if there are any problems with your order. Due to the nature of the destash sales, inventory is limited so I might not be able to offer an exchange.

By EU Law, Buyers have the right to return certain products for any reason by contacting the seller within 14 days. If you are in the EU and are unsatisfied with your purchase, you must contact me within 14 days.

Please see the item description for care instructions. All yarns are pre-washed to remove excess dye, but small amounts of color bleeding might occur. For the first few washes, please wash separate and with like colors.

I personally recommend hand washing all hand knit items. Items dyed with food coloring and acid dyes should be washed on cold to prevent bleeding.

Avoid leaving food coloring dyed items in direct sunlight to dry as fading may occur.

YES! Yarn dyed with food coloring can go through the washing machine with laundry detergent with no observable color loss.

I have observed some fading when items have been in direct sunlight for months at a time (sitting on a windowsill), but have not observed any fading in winter accessories that I wear outside regularly or items exposed to indirect sunlight in my home.

Please avoid leaving anything dyed with food coloring in direct sunlight.
