SPIN SPUN WORSTED SECONDS BAG
$ 65.00 $ 120.00
The bag you receive will contain 5 skeins of Spin Spun Worsted SECONDS (200 yds/skein)!
What is Spin Spun Worsted you might ask? You may have heard of our mill's collaboration with The Farmers Daughter Fibers, resulting in The Spinster's Daughter Worsted.
We spin it; they dye it.
Well, Spin Spun Worsted is the very same base that we mill for our friends to dye, now available to you! The fiber content and construction is exactly the same as Dream State, which makes it that soft and squishy 3-ply yarn you know and love. Dye your very own MC to pair perfectly with your favorite Dream State. Maybe a Framed sweater is in your future? These skeins are ideal for Abundant Earth's Wool Tincture Dye kits!
Note: When you receive your Spin Spun skeins they will not yet been washed. Once washed and/or dyed they will become approximately 20% fuller. Please do not gauge swatch before washing.
This listing is for undyed skeins. Dyed samples are shown to give an idea of approximate results.
Speaking of which...wondering what to do with your newly acquired Spin Spun skeins? The examples here were dyed naturally by our one of our amazing millers, Rei, with mushrooms (that she harvested herself!) and avocado skins and pits! There are so many options for dyeing to create your very own unique skeins.
"What even is a Second?" you may ask.
Seconds are skeins that didn’t meet our standards when they made their way through the many hands of our production crew during quality control. For Spin Spun, "Seconds" may indicate:
- Slubs
- Pigtails
- Underweight or overweight skeins
- Funky ply
But don't worry! You will still get a skein that is full yardage.
Each bag is a $120 value for $65!
ABOUT RETURNS ... ALL SALES ON SECONDS ARE FINAL! We will not be able to offer ball-winding service add-on for these items. We also can't guarantee that multiple skeins from a colorway will match each other well.
ABOUT SPEED ... Our analytics tell us that the people who are able to complete checkout fastest are folks with Apple Pay on their phones, or PayPal and Google Pay on their laptops. Those folks trying to type in their credit card numbers at checkout almost never make it through in time.
ABOUT "CART JACKING" ... Adding yarn to your cart won't reserve it for you. It isn't yours until you make it all the way through the purchase process. We get a lot of emails from folks whose coveted items disappeared from their carts while shopping for more yarn or while checking out. Unfortunately, we aren't able to offer shopping cart holds. That's a very sweet feature you've probably enjoyed when buying airline or concert tickets, but it's just not a thing on small business commerce websites.

For high contrast colorwork, we recommend steam blocking to avoid color transfer. • Some dyes are notoriously difficult to set, and may exhaust some color even after our final wash. • Please keep this in mind if you are combining any hand dyed yarn with a light color in the same project. • If you plan to combine a hand dyed yarn, especially a very saturated colorway, with a lighter yarn, we suggest you test your darker skeins for possible color transfer by soaking them first. • To wash your knitwear, a quick cold water dip with a no-rinse wool wash is recommended.
