This colorway starts with a heavy layer of speckling and then has dye poured over, which is the opposite of what I normally do, but I love the way it creates variation in color! Orchid, yellow, and strawberry pink are heavily speckled on both sides and then I pour a soft layer of rose pink and orchid over the top. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThis colorway was inspired by the local flower stand here in Rockland, Swell Farm that was carrying gorgeous bouquets of  freshly grown Ranunculus’ in various shades of pinks and yellow and purples.

I was my knits in the sink using luke warm water and Long Winter Farm Sweater Soap. This soap has lanolin in it which protects the natural fibers. I spot wash any stains and allow my sweater to soak for approximately 30 minutes. Rinse your sweater with cool water if necessary and them gently wring out any extra water, I use my top load washer spin cycle this this, but you can use a towel as well.  After the excess water is removed, lay your garment  flat to air dry. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fiber was handdyed by ontheround using professional quality acid dyes. I dye my yarn in small batches and no skein will be 100% the same- that's what makes working with hand dyed yarn so fun!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI do my very best to accurately photograph my yarns but please note that not all monitors are the same.
