Barbara Doll | Basic Sock | 420 yds

Description

I couldn’t help myself!! After seeing Barbie twice and loving it….I came home, pulled out all my pink dyes, and channeled my inner child.  This colour is a mix of bright pinks, raspberry pinks and deep purple-y pinks…. the result is this really fun, saturated tonal yarn that I think is pretty bad-ass….which says a lot since I’m don’t typically wear pink!

Every tray of Barbara results in two skeins of a complementary yarn, Rhodonite. Pink dyes tend to be stubborn and often there will still be colour in the water and slight bleeding even after the most involved dye processing…especially with these particular pink skeins because they use SO much pink!! 😁 So I put the two light skeins in the tray as well and they soak up all the leftover pink. Worth checking out if you like these skeins!

NOTES RE HAND-DYED YARNS:
Be aware that colors may appear differently on different computer monitors, but every effort has been made to portray them as accurately as possible.
All of my yarns are hand dyed and, as much as I attempt to match, every batch is one-of-a-kind. Be sure to order what you need as matching future batches are not guaranteed.
When using hand-dyed yarns in a project that requires more than one skein, it is strongly recommended to alternate skeins every other row of knitting to even out any differences.
Lastly, as with any hand dyed yarn, please expect minor imperfections and some variation from skein to skein (even within the same batch), as each skein is individually hand painted.
