DROPS Fiesta is a vibrant and hard wearing, 4-stranded sock yarn that is superwash treated, which makes it machine washable and easy to care for. A fun and colourful all-round yarn that is warm and soft to the touch and suitable for far more than socks; try it on sweaters, cardigans and hats!
Part of Yarn Group B, DROPS Fiesta is a perfect fit for patterns designed for DROPS Karisma, DROPS Lima, DROPS Merino Extra Fine and more…
Print colours in DROPS Fiesta have a hand-dyed look, with slight variations in pattern and nuance, which means no two skeins will look exactly the same. These variations are not defects but rather a characteristic of the dyeing technique used in the yarn.
The knitted samples in this shade card show the colour transitions you can expect when knitting a small number of stitches, such as in socks, so you can expect the colour gradient to look different/vary in projects with a different width.
How do I care for this yarn?
Machine wash on gentle cycle 40°C / Don’t use fabric softener / Dry Flat
First of all, consider just airing the garment, instead of washing it. If you still desire to wash it, here are some guidelines:
- Machine wash superwash treated wool – separately – using a wool/gentle cycle program at 40ºC with a light centrifugation (about 800rpm), and wool detergent without enzymes or optical brighteners.
- Don’t use fabric softener with superwash treated yarn.
- NEVER leave the garment to soak/wet in the washing machine for a long period of time.
- To dry the garment, shape it and lay it flat – do not hang – ideally on a warm bathroom floor or on top of a drying rack in a room with good air circulation. Never dry the garment in direct sunlight.
- Don’t tumble dry.
- Never iron the garment directly. Use always a damp cloth between your steaming iron or regular iron and the garment.
Note: If you are washing a project made with this yarn combined with another, the general guideline is to follow the washing instructions for the most delicate of the yarns you are working with.
