Dissolve a washing liquid that has been specially formulated for delicate fabrics, in a bowl of lukewarm water. Immerse the garment and gently squeeze the fabric to release the dirt.
Do not rub. Rinse several times until the water becomes clear.
It is normal to loose a small amount of the dye color at this time.
Squeeze as much water as you can, but do not wring.
Place the knitting flat over a dry, clean towel and roll the two together.
Press to absorb as much water as possible with the towel.
Do not spin or tumble dry unless you want to felt the knitting!
Dry the knitting flat so that it does not stretch out of shape.
Within hand dyed yarns it is quite usual to find some color variation hanks of the same color way.
To achieve an even color effect over the garment, it is essential to work with more than one hank at a time.
Try blending the yarn by working in imaginary stripes of 2-6 rows using two different hanks of yarn throughout
the garment. Whether you are into cross stitch, needlepoint, crochet, or straight knitting there is an ever
growing collection of sumptuous designs for all levels of experience.
