Sheep 4ply yarn undyed

Description

Sheep 4ply yarn undyed colour.

This is the 4ply undyed version of our yarn, so we called this simply ‘Sheep’.

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. This is a slaughter-free flock, so these sheep all 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! The Sheep 4ply undyed shade is the perfect backdrop for our range of Yorkshire-inspired colours, giving them a clean look.  It is fabulous for stranded and other colour-work, having the necessary ‘sticky’ qualities to support steeking methods.

The yarn is available in 100 g skeins.
