{"product_id":"sundown-bfl-silk-yarn","title":"Sundown BFL Silk Yarn","description":"\u003cp\u003eGordon Lightfoot's song Sundown is one of my very favorite studio jams, and I like to think I've captured the mellow-yet-rocking vibe of the song in this moody rainbow specklefest on a warm light brown background. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eRepublica Unicornia's BFL Silk Base is 55% British Superwash Bluefaced Leicester wool, 45% silk, 4 ply, 438 yards\/100 grams. It has a beautiful drape and sheen, and is ridiculously soft. It doesn't take dye quite as intensely as all wool yarns on tonal colorways.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e****************************************************************************\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEverything you see here is made with love and some swearing in fabulous Atlanta, Georgia. Yarn is ethically-sourced (museling-free) and dyed with professional, colorfast, lightfast acid dyes. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDue to the nature of hand-dyed yarn, I recommend that you alternate skeins in larger projects. There are often variations even within the same dyelot, so if you need a larger quantity than is available here (say, for a sweater),\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/republicaunicornia.com\/collections\/sweaters-quantities\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ewe've got the solution for that! \u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSome color bleeding is normal during the first couple of washes. I wash the bejebus out of my skeins, but some colors are just bleeders. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYour handmade items are magical delicate flowers and should be treated as such. Handwash in cool water with a delicate detergent (I recommend Sock Soap from \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.tuftwoolens.com\/\"\u003eTuft Woolens\u003c\/a\u003e) and lay flat to dry. Machine wash at your own risk (I'm not responsible for anything that happens to your project during machine washing. Those things are violent.) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYarn is dyed in a pet-free studio. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI do my best to make sure items are true to color in the photos, but monitors\/eyeballs\/etc. differ. Blues and greens are especially hard to capture (I'M LOOKING AT YOU, ELECTRIC MRS.
