Mitchell Wool Co. Farm Friends Worsted

Part of their exclusive Shepards Watch Release.  All colors have a gorgeous weathered undertone. Never super washed, the yarn in this collection has been naturally mordanted to lock in the color as much as possible. Spinning oils from the mill have been removed using plant based laundry soap. Mitchell Wool Co. then hand dyes it themselves using sustainably harvested plants, insects & food waste. Natural dyes are like snowflakes, each skein will vary and you should alternate skeins throughout your piece to achieve a subtle blend. Do not dry or store in direct sun. Hand wash & care for it like the heirloom it is. Natural dyes soften & fade like your favorite jeans, getting softer in hue with time. This is not a defect. It's nature.  Here you will find all Mitchell Wool Co yarn that is worsted weight. 125 yards / 50 grams Sheep to skein, farm grown in Dryden Michigan!
