Meet a DK yarn that shows wool at its very best. Spun from 100% Bluefaced Leicester, it’s soft, silky, and offered in natural undyed shades along with rich, countryside-inspired hu es. Its beautiful stitch definition brings cables, colorwork, lace, and simple stitches to life, and its gentle drape makes sweaters, shawls, and everyday knits feel effortlessly elegant.246 yards/100 grams100% British Blue Faced LeicesterHand wash, lay flat to dryPattern Suggestions: Halibut Cowl Tarbat HatCampus Vest Harris Hood (BFL Fleece + sensai) Altheda pulloverThe Traveller Hat Polina Vest Ingrid Sipover Crown Shy hat Impact This yarn comes through the British Wool licensing scheme, ensuring responsibly sourced fleece and full traceability from field to mill. Most of the spinning, dyeing, and finishing happens within 20 miles of West Yorkshire Spinners’ Keighley mill, meaning a dramatically smaller carbon footprint and a deep commitment to local craftsmanship. With additional partnerships—from Falkland Islands farmers to Jamieson & Smith—you’re knitting with fiber that supports sustainable practices and celebrates the heritage of wool. Show more
