100g hand dyed yarn. Blend of 80% Blue Faced Leicester wool and 20% nylon, superwash. High twist will ensure durability and marvellous stitch definition. Soft, yet durable and machine washable. Best of both worlds!

Colours shift beautifully from one to another. Randomly dyed to prevent striping or pooling, as much as possible, our yarns create variegated effect that looks good in plain stockinette or advanced stitch motifs.

Machine wash. Fingering weight. Approx. 365m/100g, mulesing free.

Hand-dyed in small batches in Cork, Ireland. Dyelots may vary though we represent every dyelot as accurately as possible in the product photos. Colours may vary from skein to skein, even within the same dyelot. If you buy more than one, we will do our best to match them up. Please ensure you buy enough to finish your project as future dyelots may vary. Please note, although we take great care in photographing our yarns, colours may vary slightly from monitor to monitor.
