VEGAKNITS Wooly

This yarn is soft and plump, with excellent stitch definition and a versatile weight suitable for all kinds of projects, from cozy garments to structured accessories.

Its construction and elasticity mean that it tends to expand slightly when blocked, so we recommend—as always—knitting and washing a swatch before starting your project. If you tend to knit loosely, going down a needle size can also help achieve a more compact finish.

We hand-dye our skeins using natural dyes extracted from plants grown under certified organic cultivation.

We apply low-impact dyeing techniques and processes. Each skein shows subtle variations, a result of the hand-dyeing process and the nature of the pigment itself.

We recommend purchasing sufficient yarn to complete your project and alternating skeins while knitting if a more uniform result is desired.

Fibers dyed with indigo may transfer a small amount of color onto hands or needles—especially wooden or bamboo ones—during knitting.

This is completely normal: some indigo molecules are released through friction, as also happens with denim. Any staining washes off the hands and does not affect the quality of the yarn.

When combining indigo-dyed colors with others, these particles do not usually transfer. However, as with any highly saturated shade, we recommend knitting and washing a small swatch before starting the project.

We recommend hand washing garments only when necessary, using a mild soap, and drying them flat.

Natural dyes are sensitive to pH, so it’s important to avoid harsh detergents.

Natural fibers do not require frequent washing. In many cases, airing the garment well between uses is enough to keep it in good condition.

Although we take special care to photograph colors accurately, tones may vary slightly depending on the monitor or device on which they are viewed.
