Toadstool is inspired by the fungi known by the same name. The cotton/acrylic neps spun into the yarn create the recognisable image of a toadstool mushroom cap.
The 4ply Fingering Weight is 100g, 420m of 84% merino wool 16% cotton acrylic neps.
My yarn is hand-dyed using professional acid dyes. Due to the nature of hand-dyeing no two skeins will be alike however I do take evert effort to ensure colour ways are consistent. If you are looking for a greater quantity and want to ensure best chances of consistency please get in touch to arrange a custom order. I would recommend this if ordering quantities greater than 3.
I ensure each skein is washed after dyeing to ensure water runs clear, little dye running may remain however so I do recommend you take care when washing any finished objects. I recommend a gentle wool wash and cold water, do not rub the yarn aggressively as this may felt it unintentionally. Reshape finished objects whilst damp and lay flat.
My yarn is hand-washed with a gentle wool wash before shipping.
