Scottish Winter Collection - Pre Order
Inspired by the beautiful landscapes, myths, legends, castles, language, funny sayings, and crags of the beautiful Scottish lands. Oh...and whiskey, ale, kilts, and knees of course. ;) I am no Scottish expert, unless you count reading Outlander several times. It's all to have fun, pure entertainment, and enjoy the Winter of Scotland once more with the colors we've loved from all of my Outlander Collections but reinvented again into new tonals and speckled colors.
This is the WHOLE Collection, you can order each color group of 4 skeins, or you can order the whole thing! Since we're dyeing A LOT of colors for this one, please give us 3 weeks from the date of your order to ship.
IMPORTANT: Please know these are hand dyed, and every batch looks slightly different.

_________
Each skein is hand dyed, they are each unique regardless of being the same colorway and name. If you are making a multi-skein item, you will want to alternate skeins.
The photos you see are just a few skeins. The skein you receive will not look exactly like this photo, as each skein is unique, but will have the same colors/style. Some skeins have more or less of each of the colors. This is the beauty of hand dyed yarn.
While I try my best to take photos to accurately represent the colors, each computer/mobile device varies in colors, if you have questions about color/photos, please ask.
Hand dyed with professional acid dyes. We wash all yarns in water several times to see that the water is running clear. Then they are washed in unscented Eucalan wool wash. Even with this process, you may still get minimal bleeding on the first few washes.
Dyed and stored in a smoke-free, dog-friendly studio.
Care: For best results, hand wash in cold water with an unscented wool wash of your choice. Lay flat to dry.
Detergent: I recommend Eucalan unscented, or another wool-specific unscented wash.
