Dalby Forest 4ply yarn

Description

Dalby Forest 4ply yarn. This beautiful worsted spun, high-end Border Leicester yarn is grown here on our farm in North Yorkshire, from our pedigree flock of over 300 pedigree Border Leicester sheep. Ours is a slaughter-free flock, so all of our sheep live to grow old.

After shearing we handpick the fleeces and transport them to Bradford for washing, combing and worsted spinning. The result is stunning.  With a great handle, stitch definition and drape, it is the perfect yarn for your special project. British through and through and we are very proud of it!

Dalby Forest has over 8500 acres of walking, cycling and running trails with breathtaking views all around.

This fresh mid-green is typical of the North Yorkshire Moors landscape.  Beautiful on its own, this shade tones surprisingly well with other colours in our Yorkshire-inspired colour range. Our Dalby Forest 4ply yarn is perfect for colour work and steeking, giving you light and warm garments and accessories.
