Mavericks
Sometimes a skein of yarn has a mind of it's own. Usually it teaches me a lesson in the process. You'll find those here.
Additionally, you can sometimes find Limited Edition runs of a base or colorway I was testing out.
I'll also include bases I've discontinued. ( the de la tierras and the mohair can be found by scrolling past the This n That sub-group down below )
Hopefully my respect for nature's colors is apparent here.
please note: For a insight into the entire wpi vs yarn weight dilemma, and how it causes some of the tags to have outdated information on them,
please read this page in my Notebook.

Below are a few helpful pages from our Info/Policies Section
Maverick de la tierras
100% Merino / singles / size of skeins vary
I started dyeing this yarn over 10 years ago, and it is some of the softest yarn around. Sad to see this line go.
There are 3 different weights listed, please make sure the thickness of the yarn is to your liking.
Maverick Mohair
100% Kid Mohair / singles /Lace Weight (identified as Fingering from mfg)
Skein sizes vary - see individual listings
This is a heavy yarn with a wonderful drape and sheen. As is typical of many mohair yarns, it does tend to shed a little when knitting. This is not the light fluffy mohair - it has body to it (see the close-ups). Your finished piece will have a wonderful halo and glow. This was a joy to dye.
