it – limited-edition upcycled mending yarn","description":"\u003cp\u003eTurn your mending into art with this gorgeous, upcycled mending yarn made from preloved knitwear, perfect for darning and embroidery. It’s environmentally friendly and a joy to use, and the colour changes add a fun surprise element to your mending.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLani from Notanotherhat gently unravels high-quality natural-fibre garments and hand dyes the yarn using professional, colourfast, Australian dyes, then winds it onto cards. Due to the handmade, limited-edition nature of these yarns, once each dye lot is gone, it’s gone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach card supplies 6-20 metres of yarn, depending on thickness and fibre type. The yarns I’ve selected for modernmending.com are mostly on the thin side – ideal for darning or embroidering thin, machine-knit garments. Some colour names include information about yarn thickness but most do not. If you're after a particular thickness for a specific mending project, let me know (either with a note at checkout or email to elf@modernmending.com) and I'll let you know what's available at the moment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach card is unique, with slight variations within each dye lot; images shown here are representative only of colour ranges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverwhelmed by all the colour choices? Select one or more 'ELF's choice' cards and I’ll pick for you from my collection (including cards not shown here that are literally one-of-a-kind).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOr take a calculated risk with a lucky dip! Each \"lucky dip\" batch is made from one upcycled garment and dye session. The colours are unpredictable, depending on how Lani waved her magic wand that day, but the thickness and fibre content are consistent, so all cards in a batch will complement each other beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMend-it yarn is salvaged and hand-dyed in Melbourne, Australia, from assorted fibres and wound on cardstock. Unless fibre content is specified in the name, mending yarn might be made from wool, alpaca, angora, cashmere, silk and\/or nylon blends. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNOTE: For best results, hand wash mended items separately in cold water with wool wash, minimising agitation, and dry flat out of direct sunlight. Some shades may lose colour in the first couple of washes, due to excess dye that has not been 'exhausted' into the yarn. It will not affect the look of the yarn or fade the colour over time, but may contaminate other items washed with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWant to see how it’s done? \u003cem\u003e\u003ca
