Halcyon Yarn color: 000 Vendor color: NA Unit: 1 oz or more Fiber content: Cotton
Naturally colored rusty-brown upland cotton. Fiber length is approximately 3/4 inch carded sliver. Will darken when washed in hot soapy water. Boiling speeds darkening, but as the first washing is pretty dramatic, boiling is not necessary. Sensitive to pH; alkalinity will darken, acidity will lighten the color. This will always be true. There is no final color, as a dip in vinegar or soda ash will change the tone slightly.

Halcyon Yarn color: 000 Vendor color: 7-128 Unit: 1 oz or more Fiber content: Ramie
This vegetable fiber comes from the plant known as "China grass" or Rhea, technically Boehmeria nivea. The plant grows in China and the Far East. Ramie fibers come from the inner portions of the plants bark. In processing, the fibers are degummed, bleached and combed. Ramie fibers are the strongest of all vegetable fibers. They are typically spun for weaving table linens because they lack elasticity.
