Leftover|Fofo Platter
Description
The idea of leftover comes naturally from the hand-dyed process itself.
During dyeing, many colour experiments take place, and with them come unexpected and beautiful surprises. Although some of these colours were not selected for regular collections, they are still quietly special in their own way.
In the earlier stages of my hand-dyed practice, I dyed many yarns while learning and exploring. While these works may not be as refined as my current collections, many of the colours remain beautiful and worth revisiting.
Rather than leaving them behind, I gathered these past pieces together and composed them into what I call a Leftover Platter.
Hand dyed with 💗 by Natur-X.
Fofo Platter includes:
-
1 mini skein of Fofo
-
3 mini skeins from my previous hand-dyed works
Each mini skein weighs approximately 20–25 g.
Every platter is unique and cannot be repeated.
The previous works may include the following bases:
-
Brushed Alpaca (98% brushed alpaca, 2% nylon)
-
Mohair (fibre content unknown)
-
Silky Mohair (60% kid mohair, 40% silk)
-
Silky Bouclé (77% baby alpaca, 23% silk bouclé)
-
Silky Alpaca (65% baby suri alpaca, 35% silk)

Wool Bouclé (100% wool)
I hope you enjoy this small continuation of past works.
Colour Information:
Every hand-dyed yarn is unique and may vary slightly from one dye batch to another, even when produced under the same conditions. Due to different electronic devices and display settings, the colour of the yarn may vary slightly from the images.
Care
Hand-dyed yarns, especially in deeper tones, may release a small amount of excess dye during the first wash. Gently hand wash in cold water using a mild wool detergent, and lay flat to dry. Avoid soaking for long periods. For stronger colors, a pre-wash before combining with lighter yarns is recommended to minimize any potential dye release. Adding a little vinegar to the rinse water can also help maintain color balance.
We recommend buying enough yarn for your project at once to ensure consistent color, as shades may vary between dye lots.
Shipping
In most cases, your order will be shipped within 5–7 business days.
