Galvanize

Galvanize

Galvanize is a rich, saturated, and moody warm red. A blend of cayenne, brick, and a touch of burnt orange make for bold, orange-leaning perfection.

Galvanization is the process of applying a protective zinc coating to steel or iron to prevent rusting. The most common method is hot-dip galvanizing, in which the parts are coated by submerging them in a bath of hot, molten zinc. While the steel is submerged, the iron in the steel metallurgically reacts with the molten zinc to form a tightly-bonded alloy coating that provides superior corrosion protection to the steel.

This barrier prevents corrosive substances from reaching the underlying steel or iron and serves as a "sacrificial" anode (will corrode before the iron). It also reacts with the atmosphere to form a compact, adherent patina that is insoluble in rainwater.

Due to the nature of hand-dyed yarn, skeins can differ slightly both between and within dye lots. Alternating skeins is recommended.

While I do my best to both capture and portray accurate colourways, please note that there may be differences due to monitors.

Despite fully exhausting, washing and rinsing all skeins, to remove excess dye, some bleeding may still occur. Hand washing yarn is recommended - in cold water to limit the bleeding - and lay flat to dry.


Please note that all yarn is dyed in a pet-friendly household.
