Ewephoric Fibers is now offering its luscious fibers through our online shop! You no longer have to wait for a show to acquire our unique spinning fibers! We offer semi-solid colors and some multi-colored colorways that will be available at any time. We are also offering one off dye lots that will not be repeated. As with any hand dyed fiber or yarn, be sure to order everything you need for your project at one time to avoid subtle color differences that invariably happen with different dye lots. If you have a large project, let us know so we can dye the whole lot at once. Please note that while we try to get the colors correct, they may not appear the same on your monitor.
This Merino/Tencel is a 50/50 blend of fine superwash Merino and Tencel which is wonderfully drapy and lends a soft silky hand to the yarn. Merino/Tencel is a great fiber for sock yarn when it is spun as a firm single and firm 2 or 3 ply. It is also great for shawls.
Suggested spinning techniques: Roving that does not have defined patches of color can be split down the middle, each half spun, and plied together or spun as a long single, wound into a center-pull ball and plied from the ends. For roving with defined color patches, we suggest that the roving be split in half lengthwise, each half spun and then the 2 singles plied together. The shift in colors will be gradual. For sharper color changes, try using Navajo 3-ply. Another suggestion is to spin the entire roving from one end and then plying it with another roving from the same dye pot or a similar color for a gentle semi-veragated yarn.
