Excelana North is a very special blend of Excelana, spun specially for us to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Susan Crawford Vintage supporting British wools. Excelana North Lightweight DK is worsted spun for a soft handle from 3 plies of this stunning Cheviot and Bluefaced Leicester blend. It works exquisitely for Fair Isle projects as well as textured and lace stitches; responding well to blocking and holding its shape beautifully. Despite its softness, Excelana is a sturdy yarn that doesn't pill easily.
Excelana North is available in economical 50gm skeins.
Excelana North is dyed in-house by Susan and her team at A Room Of My Own in a wide range of beautiful and well-loved shades. Excelana North is a non-superwash yarn and should be washed by hand in cool water with a gentle wool wash.
