NATURALLY DYED YARN

WEIGHT 4ply CONTENT 100% Merino BALL 50g/162m NEEDLE 3- 4mm RRP £6.50 What makes this yarn so special is that it's been hand-dyed with natural mineral pigments. The green ball pictured has been dyed with malachite, which is found in underground caves in the form of stalagmites.

Graphite and lapis lazuli are among the pigments used for other yarn colours (grey, and blue). To add to its natural credentials, the colouring is done by a family-run dye-works based in London, UK.

The tight twist makes a fine fabric with good stitch definition and a slight halo. To care for it, handwash and dry flat. www.etsy.com/uk/shop/ UniqueYarnsCo
