Knitted with plant-dyed (hand-dyed) yarn. This is a brand new, unused item, just finished knitting. It's plant-dyed, but I'm unsure which plant was used, as I can't confirm. There are some slight dye irregularities, though they're not very noticeable. It can be shipped the same day. 100% wool Worsted weight *As a knitter, the finish is neat and tidy. *Price reduced I'm using precious yarn left by my mother. I'm not considering further price reductions at this time.
