100% British wool, grown, sheared and spun in Britain and hand-dyed in-house by Susan and her daughter, Charlie, at their Lake District dye studio, "A Room Of My Own".
A DK weight yarn, it 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.
247 metres/270 yards per 100g skein
Recommended gauge between 20 and 22 sts to 10cm (4in) using 3.75-4mm needles.
About Olea: Olea is a strong olive-green with earthy moss tones. This was used for the Constant Companion cardigan and was paired with Heliotrope and Tansy.
