BREADCRUMB (Merino/Alpaca DK)
BREADCRUMB (Merino/Alpaca DK)
A toasted bronze-brown with warm gold underneath. Earthy without going dull and golden without becoming yellow.
This one looks particularly good when something unexpected is held with it. Green, red, jewel tones, smoky neutrals. Breadcrumb has enough warmth to hold its ground underneath almost anything.
BASE
75% fine Non-Superwash merino / 25% baby alpaca
3-ply DK weight
248 yards / 100 grams
ABOUT HAND-DYED YARN
Each skein is dyed by hand in very small batches, so variation between skeins is part of the process. Even skeins dyed together may differ slightly in depth or placement of color. For larger projects, alternating skeins every couple of rows can help blend those natural variations.
After dyeing, yarn is thoroughly rinsed, given a final soak with wool wash, spun out, and air-dried in my studio. Some residual dye release can occasionally occur, particularly with darker or more saturated colors.
CARE
Hand wash gently in cool water using a wool-safe wash. Avoid agitation and sudden temperature changes. Lay flat to dry.
