Peachy Keen on Fabulous and Semi-Fabulous
Peachy Keen is a multi tonal blend of deliciousness, sweet and smooth like a refreshing peach lemonade.
Hand dyed on Fabulous yarn with either gold or silver sparkle, or Semi-Fabulous without sparkle.
due to the dye process each batch is slightly different, even skeins from the same batch are different.
These yarns were hand dyed using professional acid dyes, heat set and rinsed well, however some residual dye may come out in the first washing.
For best results wash in cold water with like colors.
Lay flat to dry.
I try to get the color in the pictures as accurate as possible, however keep in mind different monitor settings may make the color look different.
