OTHER INFORMATION & DISCLAIMERS:
All ChemKnits hand dyed yarn is dyed in a smoke-free, cat-free, and dog-friendly home. I do my best to prewash all yarns to prevent bleeding but some bleeding may occur when you first soak the yarns. Wash any items hand dyed on their own or with dark colors for the first few washes. I personally prefer to handwash all of my hand knits (even superwash items.) Items dyed with food coloring may fade if left in direct sunlight for long periods of time. Please store your yarn out of direct sunlight - especially if wet - to preserve the color.
