Bitter Creek – Treasures

Bitter Creek is a multiple color hand dyed yarn on our luxurious Treasures Yarn Base.  The base is 80% Baby Alpaca and 20% Mulberry Silk.  Baby Alpaca is a grade term for the softness of the alpaca fiber, this is the second softest alpaca fiber.  This yarn has a lovely handle, beautiful drape, very soft and a dream to work with.

Bitter Creek is part of our outlaw series.  George “Bitter Creek” Newcomb was from Fort Scott,  Kansas.  He was a member of the Dalton Gang.  He worked as a cowboy but committed bank robbery, with the Dalton Gang and Wild Bunch.  He died at the age of 28-29 from a gunshot wound.

Each skein has 245 yards and weighs 4 ounces.  This is a light worsted weight yarn.

Your finished products should be hand washed in cool to lukewarm water (never hot water) with your favorite fiber wash without agitation to avoid felting.  Gently squeeze or spin dry your item, then lay flat to dry.  I would recommend blocking when necessary.

While I try to capture the true color of each item, I’m not a professional photographer.  There may be minor variations due to monitor or color settings.

If you would prefer your skeins to be balled into yarn cakes, please request in the notes section with your order.  I provide this service free of charge.
