Minster 4ply Yarn. A beautiful soothing truffle, warm pale brown shade.
This is the newest addition to our colour range, a warm pale brown of a majestic minster or cathedral’s stone on a summer’s evening. We have an initial limited run of Minster 4ply yarn, with the promise of more should our customers find it pleasing.
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. It also has the necessary ‘sticky’ qualities to facilitate stranded knitting and steeking. British through and through and we are very proud of it!
Our Minster 4ply yarn is perfect for garments and accessories. Light and warm and a delicate colour, it tones well with others in our Yorkshire-inspired range.
