This one is a slightly lighter dye lot. It's not noticeable on its own, just compared with other skeins, so I wanted to sell this one separately.

Soft DK: 85% SW Extrafine Merino, 15% Nylon, 4 ply, 246 yds / 100g

"Crying helps me slow down and obsess over the weight of life’s problems” - Sadness

“The Weight of Life’s Problems” is a subtle lavender-leaning gray tonal based on Sadness’ sweater. It becomes more of a pure gray on the non-superwash bases, and the lavender hue becomes more apparent when comparing the SW to NSW.

Base samples shown: Suri, Soft Sock, Polwarth DK, Natural Sock (NSW). The collection is available on all bases. Bases with more wool will generally look a little more saturated, bases with less wool will generally look a little less saturated. The Polwarth and BFL bases will take the dyes a little different, as of course the NSW bases do. So I hope these samples give a good indication of how the colorways can vary across bases!

Yarn is photographed in natural lighting and color corrected if needed, but please note colors can vary across monitors and devices. Yarn is stored in a pet-free and smoke-free home. Multiple skeins are shown to show the variation across skeins - the listing is for one skein. Care instructions: Hand wash in cool water with wool wash and lay flat to dry. All effort has been taken to fully rinse excess dye particles from the skeins after dye has been set. Some slight bleeding may still occur when washing. Avoid hot water to reduce the risk of color bleeding. 

All sales are final, so please be super sure you will be happy with your selection before purchasing! If in doubt about anything at all, please contact me first!
