Few yarns are as desirable to work with as pure wool, it’s a real knitter’s yarn, easy to work with, bouncing off the needles into a perfect strong fabric. Now more knitters want to combine fibre love with knowledge of provenance, hence interest in heritage and breed specificity.
Bluefaced Leicester, known as the cashmere of wool is recognized for its drape, softness and silky lustre. This collection uses it for wonderfully textured garments and accessories.
