If you plan on ordering 5 or more skeins of one color and would like them all in the same dye lot please visit the Dye to Order page. If you would like your yarn caked, please indicate in the additional info at check out. I always recommend hand-washing in cold water or on the delicates cycle. For best results, lie flat to dry. Please note: Due to the hand dyed nature of our yarns, colors very from skein to skein. We try our best to take photos that accurately represent the colors, since each computer/mobile device screen displays pictures differently, colors may differ a little in person than what you see here on your device
