The sea, hoarder of things once lost, cradled in its embrace. The storm does not ask. From the depths it steals, reveals. Fleetingly. Treasure transformed. Waiting, it lies, but for who? Joyfully found, or reclaimed, back to the depths. Whose hand will reach first? After the Storm. What the sea transformed, the storm revealed. Four colours swirling gently through a single skein, each settling in its own place. The same storm, different shores. On BFL Fingering, the four colours of After the Storm find their own territory. The longwool fibre encourages longer colour runs – deep teal, sage, pale aqua, near-white each claiming space before yielding to the next. Settled. The colours of sea glass, each distinct, each present, moving through the skein the way the tide moves through rock pools – unhurried, deliberate. BFL Fingering is a blend of 80% Bluefaced Leicester and 20% nylon, spun to a fingering weight. Bluefaced Leicester is a longwool breed known for its natural lustre and slightly firmer hand compared to fine merino. The nylon adds durability and resilience. This is a yarn with texture and character, honest in the hand, with good stitch definition and a natural sheen from the longwool fibre. Dyed in small batches in Nanoose Bay, British Columbia, using acid dyes on protein fibre. Each skein is individually hand-dyed. Each skein is a unique expression of the colourway – colours pool and arrange differently from skein to skein. No two are identical. 80% Bluefaced Leicester / 20% Nylon . 115g . 384m (420 yards) .
