Unlike conventional superwashing processes where scales are burned off of the wool fiber with acid, O-Wash uses a GOTS-certified organic compound to create washability. This compound holds the wool fibers in place during washing and drying, preventing them from interlocking during agitation, which is what causes shrinkage and felting.
This yarn is dyed tonally. Think of this more like a hand-dyed yarn; we suggest you alternate skeins while knitting.
Machine wash in cold water. Machine dry on low heat.
O-Wool comes to us from Jocelyn Tunney of Pennsylvania.

The color is just as pictured. It is beautiful. The yarn itself is great. A pleasure to knit with.
