Targhee FINGERING yarn

2022 Shearing Fingering Weight!! In the entire range of colors! 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. We then hand dyed it using plant matter, insect concentrates, and food scraps to develop these gorgeous  hues. Our best attempt will be made to select complimentary skeins for your project.  50g 195 meters / 213 yards 19.92 microns 2 ply woolen spun 7.5 sts per inch on US size 2 needles  30 sts = 4" crochet hook size C dyed by hand on the farm using sustainably sourced lac insect shells One skein = 2 bales of hay for the flock (Our critters consume 14 bales of locally grown hay per day from October - May when our pastures are resting. Your support puts hay in the barn and employs both the Mitchell team and the local hay grower.)  Includes the fiber of our Targhee sheep- Stephen Hawking, Billie Jean King, Sweet Tea, Ffion
