Frequently Asked Questions
If you notice that the dye is bleeding, we recommend that you wash your finished garment carefully by hand and add vinegar.
No, it won’t, provided you follow our care instructions. We clearly label all superwash varieties and provide explicit machine-washing guidelines - make sure to check them before you start your project!
Avoid using a dryer, and specifically avoid using a washing machine when working with cashmere yarn.
Sock weight yarn is officially classified as #1 Super Fine, and you might also find it referred to as 4-ply yarn or fingering weight yarn.
While often used interchangeably, fingering is purely a measurement, whereas true sock yarn is a superwash yarn and adds strong fibers like nylon to keep your socks sturdy and hole-free even with the daily friction of walking.
