dyeing house gallery
Since 1952, DHG has been creating colours. Fibres dyed in their plant have left Prato, the largest Italian textile district, and travelled to every part of the globe. They offer a wide variety of fibres, dyed in shades inspired by art and nature.
merino wool
Merino sheep create a wool with a long, smooth fibre that is lightweight, warm, and soft. Like all wool, it has excellent breathability and does an excellent job regulating temperature in garments. It is a very popular type of wool to use for hand knitting yarn, and is a great choice for socks and garments worn close to the skin.
mulberry silk
Mulberry silk is renowned for its fine texture, softness, and durability. The fibers produced by silkworms that consume mulberry leaves are longer and more uniform in size, resulting in a fabric that is stronger, smoother, and more lustrous.
mulesing free
Mulesing is a controversial farming practice used, predominantly in Australia, to prevent the parasidic infection flystrike. While mulesing prevents infection, it is a very painful procedure for the animal to endure, and more humane alternatives exist. This practice is banned in many areas of the world. If a yarn is marked as mulesing free, that means that no animals were treated this way during the production of the yarn.
oeko-tex standard 100
OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 is a label for textiles tested for harmful substances. It sets the benchmark for textile safety, from yarn to finished product. Every item bearing the STANDARD 100 label is certified as having passed safety tests for the presence of harmful substances. For our purposes, this is likely to refer to the dyes that are used on fibres and yarns.
GOTS certified organic
The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) was developed by leading standard setters to define world-wide recognised requirements for organic textiles. From the harvesting of the raw materials, environmentally and socially responsible manufacturing to labelling, textiles certified to GOTS provide a credible assurance to the consumer.
