John Arbon Textiles Exmoor Sock yarn highlights the fibre's durability and bounce, making it a dependable choice that inspires trust in your projects. Sourced from their local Exmoor Blueface sheep. Exmoor Bluefaced sheep are a crossbreed of the Exmoor Horn and Bluefaced Leicester, combining strength and softness to create a versatile yarn. Added to this wool blend is dark brown-black Devon Zwartbles, which introduces subtle flecks of colour and extra bounce. At the same time, it also includes Falklands Corriedale to enhance the softness and stitch definition, all of which is complemented by a touch of Nylon for increased durability. John Arbon's new Exmoor Sock yarn celebrates Exmoor. It is crafted for sock knitting, yet versatile enough for garments and accessories that require a durable, machine-washable yarn for everyday wear, encouraging creativity and practicality in your projects.
