Many colors do not have dye lots, and those that do, are dyed in lots of 5. Any project requiring more than 5 skeins will require more than one dye lot.
Note about Hand Dyed Yarns – While we love the exquisite colors available in hand dyed yarns, there can be significant variations from skein to skein. Please follow these guidelines to ensure success:
- Purchase enough yarn to complete your project, allowing for a bit of overage, just in case!
- Not all differences in skeins are obvious when comparing skeins.
- For projects that require 2 or more skeins, we highly recommend blending your skeins by using 2 balls at once, alternating every couple of rows from each ball. This should blend any variations between skeins.
