Misdye Thread Bundles

"We don't make mistakes, just happy little accidents." - Bob Ross

Sometimes (okay, often)...a batch of hand dyed thread goes awry, despite our careful formulas and best efforts. Sometimes dye lots shift over time due to changes in our dye stock and materials, and an "older" dye lot needs to be retired. Hand dyeing is equal parts chemistry and mystery. A batch might be the wrong color, it might have some small imperfections such as a lighter patch in one area where the dye did not take as well, or it might have some dye "texture" or areas of light and dark which are more contrasting than we typically strive for.

These batches of thread didn't quite pass for their original intended purpose, BUT in the right project, or if you don't care about matching one of our permanent colors, they can still be perfectly usable and beautiful!

This is a large thread hank of 800 continuous yards. It is secured with a zip tie to avoid tangling. Just cut the hank into two equal sections and you will have one-yard lengths. It is a LOT of thread (approximately 100 of our regular skeins' worth) but because we don't have the labor and time of cutting/packaging it into smaller lengths, we are offering them at a DEEP discount - equivalent $0.48 per SKEIN! Even if you only ever use a quarter of this yardage, it is like paying $1.92 per skein! Or, split it with some stitchy friends!
