Hand-dyed in small batches, so colors shift a little between dye lots. We recommend one extra skein so you never run short mid-project.

Dye to order — Custom-dyed for you in 7–10 business days. Your whole order will ship once dyed-to-order items are ready.

Dyed to order for you — this item cannot be returned or exchanged.
How many skeins? Roughly — hat 1 · socks 1–2 · shawl 2–3 · adult sweater 5–7. ✦ Each colour is hand-dyed in small batches — order your whole project at once (plus one spare) so every skein is the same dye lot.

This specialty yarn is the fruit of a collaboration between La Bien Aimée and Rosa Pomar. The famous Mondim is now available in a special curated palette of La Bien Aimée colors. 

This lovely 3-ply yarn, named after a portuguese village once famous for its sock knitting cottage industry, will be perfect for garments (including colourwork sweaters) and accessories. It is also recommended for knitting socks, just make sure you handwash them.

Please note due to the rustic nature of the yarn it is possible that you will find straw or other vegetable matter spun in with your yarn. It’s the charm of this base and its sheep to skein adventure.
