Plant Dyed Yarn By Mehlsen is hand-dyed with plants gathered from around the western part of Jutland, Denmark by the dyer, Mette Mehlsen. Mette uses wool from both white and grey sheep and organic herbal dyes from walnuts, tansy, cochineal, indigo, madder, and other herbal dyes to create an incredible palette.

001 is dyed with tansy.

  • Content: 100% Wool dyed with natural dyes
  • Weight: Each ball is about 5 grams. 
  • Length: 65-70 metres
  • Care: Excess plant and dye residue may occur. Careful handwash.
  • Hand-dyed in Denmark.
  • The Mapula range is embroidered on black, 100% Edenrose cotton fabric, made in South Africa.
  • The embroidery thread is Elle Crochet no 5, made in South Africa (using imported acrylic raw materials)
  • Washing instructions: Best is to hand-wash with wool-friendly detergent and hang in a shady place as the fabric can fade in the sun.
  • Iron the product face-down on a towel with a steam iron. Don’t use a very hot iron as the embroidery thread is synthetic and can melt.
  • All items are pre-shrunk but you are advised to follow the washing instructions on the Mapula tag carefully.
