Description:

This art yarn has a white base with multicolored additions like mustard, navy, gray, brown, and more. The yarn is super chunky, with thick-and-thin variation throughout, and highly textured. The texture includes chunks, different materials, dangling fibers, etc. and tells the story of the 100% upcycled materials that went into the yarn. I created this yarn by hand using my drum carder and Electric Eel Wheel. Enjoy!

Care:

The yarn is ready-to-use. When it's time to clean, hand-wash it in cold water (using a wool conditioner) and lay flat to dry.

Length estimation:

The length of the yarn was estimated by weighing a small length of yarn, finding the centimeter-to-gram ratio, and applying this to the entire weight of the skein. If you'd like a more exact measurement, just let me know! I'd be more than happy to measure the exact length with greater precision.

Packaging:

The yarn will arrive in either a recycled gray mailer or a paper mailer. If it’s in a paper mailer, then the outer packaging (i.e., mailer, label, tape) is entirely recyclable and compostable. If it's in a gray mailer, the outer packaging must be thrown away. In either case, the inner packaging will be entirely compostable.

Additional info:

If you have any questions about gauge on this yarn, just send a message! I'm more than happy to knit or crochet up a sample using a needle or hook size of your choice.

Please note the exact texture color will vary from the photos, which are intended to give a sense of general character and color palette. Also, please be aware that due to the nature of handmade goods, the yarns could have slight imperfections. If you have any questions or if you would like exact dimensions or more photos, please let me know!
