Mountain Spice is another native Tasmanian plant and is a semi solid lovely light burnt orange colour and reminds me of cinnamon.

This colour is part of my Kelsey Collection. I created this range when I decided to get back into colour work and was looking for colours that would all work together.

A yarn that is as close to its natural origins as possible. No superwash treatment, just a wash to remove the grease and dirt from the fleece then combed for spinning. A great choice for those looking for a luxurious, non superwash, no nylon yarn.

To care for your yarns

Cool hand wash in an approved wool wash. Do not wring or agitate. Dry flat in the shade. This yarn is pure wool so please handled with care.

This is a hand dyed item and may vary slightly from skein to skein. I recommend alternating skeins or rows.
