Description
'Oh, Chuck it!' is a spontaneous mix of leftover dyes and dyes I've mixed for this colourway. I've used vibrant blue, aqua, mustard yellow, peach, fuchsia, plum, golden brown, and a bit of black.
It's dyed on a base of Kent Romney wool; A medium, British breed with a 27-29 micron count. If you're learning to spin, this is a fantastic breed to start with. Is it super soft like Merino? Nope. Can I spin it for garments? YES! It's also suitable for felting.
If you'd like to see how I dyed this wool, there is (or will be) a short reel in my Instagram account.

Please note:
After dyeing, and my fibres have cooled, they are rinsed in room-temperature water to remove residual citric acid and to check for colourfastness. Exposure to hot water may cause some colour release (this is normal). To help preserve the colour, always wash finished wool projects gently in room-temperature water using a mild wool wash. Avoid hot water and agitation, unless you want your fibres to felt.
