    About Wold Worsted

    100% British wool - 50% Southdown, 25% Bluefaced Leicester, 25% Shetland
    159 metres / 174 yards per 100g skein.
    Recommended gauge: 17.5 sts to 10cm (4in) using 5.5 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 Worsted comes in both 100gm and 25gm skeins.

    Wold Worsted is hand-dyed here at our Lake District dye studio, on the natural, undyed, non-superwash, white yarn. Wold takes colour exceptionally well, producing strong, semi-solid shades.

    About Limestone: Limestone is a warm oatmeal shade. Its the perfect base shade when Cumulus is too strong a contrast.

    Care Instructions
    Hand wash with care in cool water using a gentle wool wash and dry flat.
    Please note
    As these yarns are hand-dyed please be aware that there will be subtle variation between dye lots. Because of this please be sure to purchase enough yarn for your project.
