This is the finest version of British Blue 100, 100% British wool from the Bluefaced Leicester sheep. Considered Britain's most luxurious fiber, the wool from this breed is extremely soft due to its long staple fibers that are spun to create a fine, lightweight yarn that is low-pilling and hard-wearing.
Known for its lustre, Bluefaced Leicester wool has a subtle shine for excellent stitch definition. Thanks to its densely curled fleece, it takes dye extremely well for a vibrant, shimmering effect.
Bluefaced Leicester: You may not remember its name, but you will remember its sweetness!
