HAND DYED RUG HOOKING WOOL **Abrashed** ~ "PRAIRIE LICHEN-II" (Fat:1/8,1/4,1/2)

Description: ~ CRAYOLA BOX (Abrashed-Dyed) WOOL YARDAGE ~ “P R A I R I E L I C H E N” (Sold by the Piece = Fat 1/8 yard Total, Approx. 13” x 16”) **Photos never do my Hand-Dyed Colors…Justice ~ So much Prettier in Person** (A more subtle & softer-stroked Yellow & Taupe-Green-Gray) One side is a “more muted” version with the colors blending softly into each other; the other side is “richer in tone & intensity” great for outlining…perfect to use BOTH SIDES for a broader range of effects (reversible). *I was experimenting to come up with a sort of “dirty-yellowed” Background and am pleasantly happy with the way this spot-dyed piece came out! Of course I always try to think of a multitude of uses to help give my customers some visual aids. Reptiles also come to mind…great Lizard & Snake Skins; Tree Frogs; Grasshoppers but also Reindeer & Prairie Lichen (hence the name). Also such a perfect piece for dried Prairie Grass & Lichen Covered Rocks!* Note: (only 1 Fat 1/8 yd. piece has spots of un-dissolved red dye; please buy only if you don’t mind the ‘extra hint of color’ or don’t mind cutting around it!) My Crayola Box ~ Multi-Spot-Dyed wool is dyed using a very time consuming “multi-spot-dye process” that involves several different dyes and/or dye formulas and several steps which takes a longer time to process, hence the increased starting price in my listings. This process creates a more “painterly & impressionistic effect” with more muted overall colors and a gentle fusion & transition of the colors than with the regular Spot-Dye methods! You will get great depth & undulations of the different colors in each loop you hook! You can use both sides, one is a little darker…great for outlining & backgrounds; the other side is a little lighter…great for filling in the design…or, skies the limit! You're purchasing 100% hand-dyed wool that has been "multi-spot-dyed" over either Natural or other Solid Color base wool. The formulas I create will change with the seasons and will include a wide range of shades from light to medium and dark to rich. I only use new, 100% wool from the finest suppliers in the wool industry. These wools are suitable for primitive & traditional rug hooking as well as wool appliqué work. The wool is measured PRIOR to washing, giving you a full fat eighth yard to work with. The wool is felted and ready for you to use. Each piece measures approximately 13" wide x 16” long and totals one Fat 1/8 yard after shrinkage & felting. If you are new to rug hooking and have no other resources available, I’d be happy to cut your wool into strips on your FIRST ORDER, a maximum of (4 bundles or 1 yard equivalent). However, I would be most appreciative if you would seek out your local resources for cutting (i.e. ~ friend, neighbor, guild or shop) and use me as your last resort so I may have the time to dye more wonderful shades of wool for your future projects! I can cut your wool into #6 (6/32”), #8 (1/4”), or #9 (3/8”) cut strips. Please notify me at the time of payment if you’ll need your wool cut & which size you would like & allow an additional day or two for my extra work. Do Note: once your wool has been pre-cut into wool strips & shipped to you, it is no longer eligible for exchange or refund! Also, future orders will need to be charged {$2.50 per Fat 1/4 yard bundle or yardage equivalent} to offset my time, as well as maintenance & repair costs for my cutter. I do my best to post photographs that realistically represent the colors in my hand-dyed wools & velveteen fabric. Please understand that computer monitors vary and the color representation {you personally see} may differ slightly from the original as everyone sees color differently. If you have difficulty seeing a particular color, BE SURE to adjust your computer screen/monitor for “brightness” which can improve you seeing the colors & the subtle over & undertones of each color & variations. In most cases, the colors in your wool/velveteen will be much more pleasing in person than what you see in the photo. I guarantee 100% satisfaction. Some, but not all of the “photo samples of rugs” I may display here are projects hooked by me & they are shown merely to demonstrate how my wool can be used in a rug project. I do notcopy, re-design, trace, sell or profit from any of these rugs or patterns (that are not mine) in anyway!! My Wool comes from a smoke free home! Be sure to check out my eBay STORE to see what else I have in stock! I continue to add new inventory ongoing, so do check in often. If you’d like to sign up on my "special" eBay Mailing List to be informed when I’ll be listing my latest round of NEW COLORS and/or NEW NOTIONS, be sure to contact me through eBay and I’ll take care of it! Thanks for your interest in my hand-dyed fabrics & your valued business!
