Swans Island Ikat Collection Firefly
This product is currently unavailable for purchase.
Swans Island Ikat Collection Firefly is a 100% certified organic Merino wool yarn in a fingering weight. Like its sister Watercolors, Firefly is also Ikat—an Indonesian resist-dye process that creates fascinating patterns. Firefly has more striking white sections, while Watercolors is dyed to have a more painterly effect. No two skeins are exactly alike—resulting in beautifully variegated projects. Due to the nature of indigo dye, some color will rub off, though it will not bleed into the white or fade. It's best to use metal needles with this yarn as the dye will stain wood or bamboo needles.
Hand-dyed yarns have subtle variations in colors that are natural and may vary from skein to skein. There may be differences between pictures shown and the yarn you receive. To ensure the best results for your project:
- Buy enough yarn for your entire project at one time.
- When using hand-dyed yarn in your project work two rows from one skein and two rows from another skein to give an overall blended effect.
If you have any questions or concerns about hand-dyed yarn, please contact Customer Service.
Available online only. Local customers may select the Pickup option when placing orders online.
