FIBER CHARACTERISTICS
The wool for Imbue Worsted comes from Merino sheep raised in Utah and Nevada. An ancient breed hailing back to 12th century Spain, the “King of Sheep" is renowned for supremely soft and dense finewool fleeces with lively spring, velvety luster, and superb vibrance of color when dyed. Ideal for cozy sweaters, accessories, and blankets, Imbue Worsted’s 5-ply worsted-spun construction brings smoothness and durability to this wonderfully wearable wool.
Care:
We recommend alternating skeins while knitting to blend the color evenly.
WET-BLOCKING
Fill a sink or basin with warm water and submerge the fabric in water, gently squeezing out any air bubbles so that the piece can remain under water without being held there. Soak work for 20-30 minutes, allowing fabric to become completely saturated. Remove excess moisture by rolling your fabric between clean, dry towels with light pressure. Lay fabric flat and shape to air dry.
