MAYFLOWER - Amadora - Asphalt (1 skein)
Amadora is a hand-dyed yarn made from 100% extra-fine merino wool, known for its exceptional softness and beautiful color variations. As the yarn is hand-dyed, natural variations in color may occur – both between skeins and within the same skein – giving each project a unique expression. To create a more even transition between skeins, it is recommended to alternate between two skeins for a few rows when starting a new one. This way, the color change will be more harmonious in the finished project. Hand-dyed yarn often has greater shade variations than machine-dyed yarn. Therefore, variations in color may occur – even within the same skein and even when the yarn comes from the same dye lot. To avoid noticeable transitions, we recommend that you alternate between the new and old skein for a few rows when you are nearing the end of a skein. For example, knit or crochet 1–2 rows with the new skein and then 1–2 rows with the old one, and continue in this manner until the first skein is used up. This evens out the color changes and results in a more natural finish. Material: 100% wool (extra-fine merino)Weight: 100 gYardage: 350 mRecommended needle size: 3–3.5 mmGauge: 27 sts x 40 rows = 10 x 10 cm Amadora is a luxurious hand-dyed yarn made from 100% extra-fine merino wool. The fibers are finer than in regular merino wool, resulting in an extra soft and comfortable yarn. This makes Amadora suitable even for people with sensitive skin, as the yarn feels light and soft against the body. The yarn is also machine washable, making it easy to maintain your finished projects without compromising quality. One of the great qualities of hand-dyed yarn is its vibrant and unique play of colors. Each skein has its own expression, which gives knitting and crochet projects a special depth and character. Therefore, it is a good idea to ensure you have enough yarn for your project from the start, as color differences between dye lots can vary more than with industrially dyed yarn. The wool in Amadora comes from South America and is mulesing-free, which means better animal welfare. The yarn is also OEKO-TEX certified, ensuring a product free from harmful substances. Amadora is delivered in 100 g skeins with a generous yardage of 350 meters, making it a long-lasting yarn. For a basic size M sweater, you will typically need about 3 skeins. The color Amadora 01 (Cream) is undyed and therefore ideal if you want to try your hand at hand-dyeing and create your very own colors.
