  • Wold Fingering - Happy Accident - Dove Blue

    At Susan Crawford Vintage, we hand-dye all our yarns at our Lake District studio, using our unique, personally developed recipes, to create our beautiful colour palettes. Occasionally, the unexpected occurs resulting in truly unique creations we affectionately call "Happy Accidents."

    These special skeins may be in colours that fall outside our usual palettes, or they might display captivating variations in tone or variegation. Each "Happy Accident" is one (or several)-of-a-kind, a testament to the unpredictable and beautiful nature of hand-dyeing.

    These unique treasures are all significantly reduced compared to yarns in our colour palettes! Remember "Happy Accidents" are limited edition, and unrepeatable.

    Please note: Due to the nature of these skeins, "Happy Accidents" are not eligible for return or refund.

    Wold 2 Ply Fingering weight

    100% British wool - 50% Southdown, 25% Bluefaced Leicester, 25% Shetland
     348 metres / 380 yards per 100g skein

     Recommended gauge from 28 to 32 sts to 10cm (4in) using 2.75-3.25 mm needles.

    This artisanal yarn is a unique blend of  the wool of three British sheep breeds known for their beautiful fleeces, Southdown, Bluefaced Leicester and Shetland, creating a fabulously soft white yarn with bounce and spring.

     

    Wold 2 Ply is worsted spun from 2 plies into an airy, fingering weight yarn.

    Worsted spun for a smoother yarn but with enough bite for Fair Isle projects.

     

    Wold is dyed in-house by Susan and her team at A Room Of My Own in a wide range of beautiful and varied shades. Wold takes colour extremely well resulting in rich, semi-solid shades. Wold is a non-superwash yarn and should be washed by hand in cool water with a gentle wool wash.

    About Dove Blue: It is a cool blue grey shade with some possible variegation. Available as 100g skeins only.
