Description

Let your yarn do the work with our self-patterning base, Stormy. This fingering weight blend is perfect for sweaters, accessories, and socks as the touch of nylon adds a little extra strength. Stormy works up into a beautiful space-dyed effect in a variety of colors. Keep your knitting simple and enjoy impressive results with this fun choice! Stormy comes in a skein, to best highlight its beauty and patterning. We recommend winding Stormy into a ball or cake before using it.

Warning

Due to its vibrant quality, we have found that this colorway tends to release dye into the wash basin while soaking. These dyes may transfer over to fibers in lighter colorways. For this reason, this colorway is not recommended for projects that feature colorwork or striping.
Before wearing, hand wash garments separately with like colors in cool water using a gentle wool wash. Limit soaking time to 10 minute increments. Rinse thoroughly. Roll gently in an old towel to remove excess water and lay flat to dry.

If desired, re-fix dye before using as follows: Using a dye basin, combine 1 tbsp white vinegar + 1 cup boiling water + 3 cups tepid water per 100g of yarn. Soak yarn for 10 - 15 minutes. Remove yarn and roll gently in a sheet of plastic wrap. Microwave roll for 2 minutes on high, checking closely to avoid overheating or excess steaming. Allow roll to cool before handling. Soak yarn in cool water using a gentle wool wash for 15 minutes. Squeeze out remaining water (do not wring.) Hang yarn on a plastic hanger or in a mesh laundry bag and allow to dry completely.
