+++
All skeins are dyed in small batches, washed, and rinsed; however, some bleeding may still occur. While I try to maintain consistency with all of my yarns, please remember that with hand-dyed yarns, colors may vary slightly from one to the next and skeins will never be identical. Please note that due to monitor differences, actual colors may also vary from what is shown. When purchasing Red Door Fibers yarn, I recommend purchasing enough yarn for your project in order to ensure consistency.
