You will receive one of the skeins pictured. These 'one of a kind batch' yarns are dyed in small, shallow pans of two skeins - they can be experiments, mishaps, or made with leftover dyes (like my 'Leftovers' spinning fibre), they may also appear again as a similar repeatable colourway. It usually means that I have no written recipe for the amounts of each dye I used. 

These have been photographed indoors in my workshop. Colours may vary slightly under different lighting conditions. I have done my best to capture the colours as accurately as possible. Some colours are notoriously difficult to represent correctly on the screen - teals and blue/greens are the worst offenders with the results looking either blue or just green. 

If the yarn is 'superwash' (or SW), it has been treated to prevent shrinking in the washing machine. Even though SW yarns can be put through the washer, I recommend gently hand washing or soaking your finished items in cool/lukewarm water with a mild wool wash - this will help keep your colours looking bright. Hot water may make the colours bleed or fade. To dry, gently wring out and lay flat.
