 GAUGE: 4 stitches per inch on US #8 (5 mm)

This 2 ply heavy worsted,Aran weight base will calm you with its softness and captivate you with its slight halo effect. Natural dye colors are slightly muted on this base compared to some of the others. It’s easy to work with and the larger gauge means projects zip along. Finished fabrics are lightweight due to the yarn being woolen spun. Peaceful Worsted is made in the USA and naturally dyed in Ohio.

Minor bleeding may occur on first wash. Each skein is unique, purchase multi-skein projects together & alternate rows. Colors are shown as accurately as possible but Monitors will vary.

You can prolong the life of all textiles and colors by washing by hand in cool water and avoiding exposure to strong, direct, prolonged light. For yarn, air drying on a flat surface will prevent stretching and sagging. A neutral wool wash is recommended. I currently use non scented Eucalan or Orvus.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where do your yarns come from?

At present, yarns come from the US, Britain and Canada. Bit by bit, I'm adding yarns made from small US farm wools. Some yarns are here for the long haul, others are limited editions.

Are natural dyes color fast and fade resistant?

There is an almost infinite number of natural dye sources but many are not light or wash fast. Flora Adora Fibers uses natural dyes that are known to have excellent to good light and wash fastness. Food grade mordants are used to bind dyes and permanently fix them to the fibers.

Both commercial and natural dyes will fade with extended exposure to strong light.

Washing yarns and finished projects in cool water with a pH neutral soap will further help maintain colors.
