100% British wool, blended from Cheviot and Bluefaced Leicester sheep, grown, sheared and spun in Britain and hand-dyed by our team at our canal-side mill.
A light DK weight yarn, is worsted spun for a soft handle, and works exquisitely for Fair Isle projects as well as textured and lace stitches, blocking and holding its shape beautifully. Despite its softness, Excelana is a sturdy yarn that doesn't pill easily.
