Wold Sport - Cumulus

About Wold Sport weight:
100% British wool - 50% Southdown, 25% Bluefaced Leicester, 25% Shetland
147 metres / 160 yards per 50g skein.
 Recommended gauge from 26 to 28 sts to 10cm (4in) using 3.25-3.75 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.

 

This sport weight yarn is made of 4 plies worsted spun to create a bouncy, airy fibre.

Wold Sport is hand-dyed here at our dye studio, A Room Of My own, on the natural, undyed, non-superwash, white yarn. Wold takes colour exceptionally well, producing strong, semi-solid shades.


About Cumulus:Cumulus is Wold in its undyed glory, a soft, cloud-like shade of white.
