Some of the bases have the superwash treatment which means that they can be washed in the washing machine. However, we always recommend hand washing traditionally dyed wool to prolong the useful life of the colors.

The dyeing process
Feliz y Punto’s yarns are totally handcrafted.
I pre-wash our yarns to remove lanolin and any dust that may have been caught during the spinning stage.
When the undyed hanks are delivered to me, I store them carefully, in dry conditions and away from light. I only dye in small batches. Although for each colorway dyes and process are the same, every skein is unique.
I use non toxic acid dyes and a food grade citric acid as our setting agent. All the dye is exhausted from the dye pots so that there is zero nasty stuff being poured into the drains. Citric acid also looses its potency as it helps the dye absorb into the fibers. Water is often re-used to also minimize the water usage and wastage.
After the dye process is completed, our freshly dyed yarn takes a long nice soak in gentle wool wash to ensure all that citric acid water is scrupulously rinsed from the yarn. Our yarn is now super clean and super soft and is ready for your crafty hands.
