Bedtime Stories is a hand-dyed yarn colorway inspired by the magic of late-night reading and dog-eared pages. Saturated magenta sets the scene, layered with playful watermelon pink and soft sky blue that drift through the skein like dream fragments. The result is vibrant yet balanced, bold without shouting.

Each skein is carefully hand dyed in small batches, creating subtle variations that make every project one of a kind. This colorway shines in shawls, socks, hats, and statement garments where color can take center stage. Whether knit or crocheted, Bedtime Stories brings a touch of wonder and warmth to every stitch.

Pro Tip: If your project uses more than one skein in the same colorway, we recommend alternating skeins every row. Hand-dyed yarns naturally have slight shifts in tone and saturation, and switching skeins as you go helps those subtle variations blend beautifully for a more consistent, cohesive fabric.

You can even use this technique with a single-skein project: wind the skein into two balls and alternate between them each row. If you’re working from a center-pull cake, just use both the inside and outside strand to alternate rows.

Care Instructions 

Wash only when necessary — fine yarn rarely needs frequent cleaning. When your piece does need care, hand-soak in cool water with a mild wool wash. Avoid detergent, wringing, agitation, or machine washing (even on delicate cycles). Press gently in a towel to remove excess water and lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight. 

A larger amount of color release will occur with cotton yarn. This is normal with hand-dyed cotton yarns, especially with deeply saturated colorways. This will lessen over time and does not affect the quality of your finished piece, however, be sure to soak separately or with like colors only.

Cherish your handmade item — with gentle care, it will last a lifetime.
