Classic Sock
80% Falklands Polwarth Wool, 20% Nylon
4ply sock 400m/100g skein approx. Superwash.
This wool is almost as soft as Merino, but bouncier and more hardwearing - so perfect for socks! It dyes wonderfully and the rounded structure makes it ideal for cables.
BFL Sock
75% Blue Faced Leicester Wool, 25% Nylon
4ply sock 400m/100g skein approx. Superwash.
Soft and hard wearing sock yarn. This British Blue Faced Leicester wool is strong with a gentle lustre. Ideally suited to socks but soft enough for garments, shawls and other accessories.
Merino 4ply
100% Merino Wool
4ply 400m/100g skein approx. Hand wash.
Extra fine Falklands Merino wool with a beautiful handle. Soft and squishy. A rare non-superwash Merino yarn. I often use this base for my fade sets.
Merino DK
100% Merino Wool
DK 230m/100g skein approx. Hand wash.
This is incredibly soft extra fine Merino yarn, grown in the Falklands and spun in Yorkshire. A lovely yarn to use for garments, shawls and accessories.
BFL 4ply
100% Blue Faced Leicester Wool
4ply 400m/100g skein approx. Hand wash.
Beautifully Soft British Blue Faced Leicester wool, ideal for garments, shawls, next to skin accessories. Harder wearing than merino and with added shine.
