Valley Yarns Variegated 8/2 Tencel
We've seen 8/2 Tencel hand-dyed into a beautiful variegated product and wondered why we couldn't do the same on a larger scale. Now we have! We are absolutely thrilled to introduce 12 lovely variegated colors into our line of Tencel. Made from the same top-quality, A100 8/2 Tencel as our solid colors are, we anticipate new colors being added. $1.50 per cone charge for wind-off service. Please see our FAQ page for more information about in-store wind-offs.
Note: Yarns sold by the pound may have their quantity adjusted before the order is sent to reflect the actual weight of what is being sent out. Cone weights may vary.

As a production weaver I am always looking for new fibers and colors. The Mountain Stream Varigated 8/2 tencel produced gorgeous scarves that are a big hit with my customers.

Comments about Valley Yarns Variegated 8/2 Tencel:
I'm making my first attempt at trying to use a pre-dyed yarn into what looks like a painted warp,(Handwoven Sep/Oct '10) since this tencel isn't handpainted, it's hard to tell where the "repeat" happens. I keep ending up with colors mismatched on my warping board (even though i'm going in circles, not back and forth). Anyone else ever try with machine dyed thread, or know how long I need to go before a repeat with this particular brand of variegated tencel? I love this tencel and would love to be able to figure this out if it's possible!

Comments about Valley Yarns Variegated 8/2 Tencel:
I used some of the variegated tencel as warp with a sold tencel weft in a plain weave to make a scarf. It looks fabulous. I'm planning on getting another colorway in the variegated, making a long warp, and weaving several scarves - each using a background solid from the variegated tencel.
