Photo shows one longer skinnier skein and one shorter plumper one. The plump one has been conditioned, and is the normal state one finds yarn in when sold retail.
Conditioning yarn-- When yarn comes straight from the mill, as this one did, it has mill oil and some lanolin in it still -- a hot bath in 150 to 160 degree water with a wool wash such as Kookaburra Scour or Eucalan should do the trick, wash all the skeins at once for consistent results. You will want to scour this yarn a bit before dyeing.
