Choosing Fiori
Frequently asked questions
Where can I buy Fiori hand dyed yarn in Australia?
Here. We stock Fiori Hand Dyed Sock, DK and Silk and post them Australia-wide. Orders post with Australia Post and typically arrive in 2 to 7 business days, depending on where you live. Express Post is available at checkout, and shipping is free on orders over $150.
What ply is Fiori Hand Dyed DK?
8 ply, which is the Australian name for DK. A 100g skein has 200 metres, and it knits on 4mm needles at 22 stitches to 10cm.
Is Fiori Hand Dyed Sock good for socks?
Yes. It is 80% fine merino and 20% nylon, and the nylon helps heels and toes last. A 100g skein has 400 metres, enough for a pair of adult socks in most patterns.
Can you machine wash Fiori yarn?
Sock and DK can take a warm, gentle machine wash. Fiori Hand Dyed Silk is a hand wash in wool detergent, without rubbing.
Why do Fiori skeins look different from each other?
They are dyed by hand, so every skein varies a little, even in one colourway. Buy what you need at once and alternate skeins for an even result.
Do you wind Fiori skeins?
Yes for Sock and DK, when you order. Silk is sold unwound. Skeins we have wound cannot be returned.
