5 Skein Fade on Squishy Sock Base
5 Skein Fade on Squishy Sock Base
This 5 Skein Yarn Fade is a One of A Kind creation. Truly, my favourite way to dye yarn, as I throw away the rules and the recipe book, and let the creativity flow. Because these sets are not replicable, if you fall in love at first sight, I suggest snatching up this unique fade while you can!
Dyed onto my Squishy Sock Base, with a total of 2185 yards, the possibilities are endless with a set of yarn like this.
Squishy Sock Base: A soft and plump fingering weight yarn, made up of 80% Superwash Merino Wool and 20% Nylon. Each skien is 114 grams and 437 yards. It has an 8 ply makeup, giving it a substantial feel for a fingering weight yarn. A perfect base for any item calling for a classic fingering weight yarn. It is machine washable on delicate cycle, thanks to its Superwash
treatment. This is a reliable and practical choice for items like socks, shawls, baby items and other wearable garments.
The beauty of indie dyed yarns is that no two are identical, I recommend alternating skeins after each row for a more uniform look. It is a rare occurrence, and I do everything possible to avoid this, but there is always a chance of colour bleeding with the first wash. The photos used are chosen to best represent the true colourways, using natural, outdoor sunlight. I try my hardest to achieve consistency between dye lots. If you need a quick consultation while choosing colours, please let me know, I’d love to help!
