Urth Yarns Harvest - Rubia
Description
.....................................................................................
Harvest 100% Superwash Extra Fine Merino is dyed with natural ingredients such as roots, fruits and nuts. Colors are sometimes subject to subtle variation as each harvest is different. Each color is named after its dyeing material. It is true, one may mistake this line of colors for an ice-cream menu!
The Urth Yarns company dyes and prepares this soft, super wash wool in Turkey primarily by women. And yes, every skein of Urth Yarns plants a tree! In partnership with Trees for the Future, Urth Yarns is helping in their mission to provide families with tools and knowledge to plant trees in Africa.
Hand-dyed yarns have subtle variations in colors that are natural and may vary from skein to skein. There may be differences between pictures shown and the yarn you receive. To ensure the best results for your project:
Buy enough yarn for your entire project at one time.
When using hand-dyed yarn in your project work two rows from one skein and two rows from another skein to give an overall blended effect.
Please Note: Due to the hand crafted nature of this yarn, knot may occasionally be found in skeins and color joins may vary.
