| CAROL'S SPECIALLY DYED SUPERWASH Tell me your color choice and I will dye you a pound and a half of superwash on yellow oops, saffron or red. I will not guarantee just what the end result will be. You can see from the photos below it will be variegated. The dyed fiber spins into glorious yarns, strictly one of a kind. We now offer a smaller amount for folks wanting to spin for a pair of socks. 1lb. 8 oz bump 1 lb bump 4 ounces $18.00 $13.50 $4.00 |
| We have learned that Superwash fiber takes many dyes beautifully. I have used Jacquard Dyes and it worked fine for me. I have also used RIT and it took all the dye leaving a nearly clear water. I often soak my roving in a fairly strong hot vinegar bath before dropping the fiber into the dyepot, this gives a variegated dye job. I would also use this method for wetting the fiber before painting it with the dye. Premordanting before using the Natural Dyes is a plus in my opinion. I like to use all the mordants for a wider range of colors from one dyepot. It also seems to strengthen the grip on the colors from the dyepot. |

| . |
| BABY BLUE #1 Superwash Top the dyelot was not quite right, some white streaking and spots....... Great to overdye |
| The wool or wool blend specially dyed fibers do not have the sheen that the superwash does. --------> Shipping is high so 4 ounce orders are best combined with larger orders. We cannot weigh up many colors to make up a 1 1/2 pound order. It must be made up of one dyelot. For many colors, you must order 4 oz ,8 oz, or l lb orders. This helps me keep the price low. |
| Black |
| Soft Redwood |
| Left and right rovings are wool or wool mohair blends. |
| AND THEN THERE IS MOHAIR This is dye soppers. When I dye the main rovings there is always a lot of dye in the pots....I drop in short pieces of rovings, sometimes long pieces to take up the colors. You can request colors, but I may not have them. I will send at least 4 ounces of a color for you. They are good to spin, and blend. Glorious glowing colors....... |
