About Our Bases
We take pride in our variety of base offerings. Most of our yarns are Superwash, meaning the fiber has been pretreated to prevent the yarn from felting during washing and drying. This makes most of our products suitable for a wide variety of items. However, we encourage you to hand wash and air dry, when possible. If you are looking for yarns that are suitable for heavy use, children, and babies, we recommend a Merino/Nylon blend.
