🎨 This yarn is hand-dyed in small batches. Each skein is unique. Slight variations may occur due to dye lots and fiber type, but we aim for consistency and quality every time.

🧶 Perfect for knitting and crochet projects. Whether you’re making socks, shawls, sweaters, or scarves, Bad Sheep Yarn delivers stunning color payoff with soft, strong fibers.

🐑 Superwash wool bases are washer-safe. For best results, hand wash and lay flat to dry. Machine wash cold on delicate if needed, but avoid heat or agitation.

🦙 Luxury bases require gentle care. Suri Alpaca and Mulberry Silk bases are non-superwash. Hand wash only and steam block to preserve texture and shape.

⚠️ All yarn is sold in skeins and must be caked (wound) before use. New to hand-dyed yarn? Visit our website for a quick demo on how to wind your skein into a cake. We also offer optional winding services, which add 3–5 business days to processing. Wound skeins are not eligible for returns.
