I always recommend hand washing knitwear with wool wash, and Yarn Matter products are no exception. Eucalan is a delicate, pH neutral detergent enriched with lanolin to maintain the integrity and softness of your knitwear. Eucalan is non-toxic, biodegradable, and is free of synthetic fragrances and dyes, phosphates, and optical brighteners. As a plus, this is a no rinse detergent! Eucalan can be used for hand washing or in the laundry machine, and can be used to wash other delicate items as well (not necessarily woolens). 

Available in 5 different scents: unscented, eucalyptus, jasmine, grapefruit, and lavender.

The 100 mL / 3.3 oz bottle can be used for approximately 20 washes. 

The 500 mL / 16.9 oz bottle can be used for approximately 95 washes. 

Care Instructions

For best care and to maximize color longevity, hand wash gently with wool wash or a delicate, pH neutral detergent in cool water sparingly.If you need some wool wash, try Eucalan Delicate Wash! Avoid excessive agitation when washing. Keep out of direct sunlight as much as possible and lay flat to dry. Although I thoroughly wash the skeins, some colors may bleed in the first couple of washes.

Tips for Use

Due to the nature of hand dyed yarn, no two skeins are exactly the same. I recommend alternating skeins if working with more than one skein of the same color to ensure color consistency.

For ease of use, I recommend winding the yarn into a center-pull cake. I will happily wind your skeins into cakes before shipping them if you would like! Just let me know you would like your skeins wound in the notes section upon checkout. 

Disclaimer

I do my best to represent the colors accurately, but they may vary between monitors.

Products are dyed in a pet-friendly, smoke-free home.
