Sheep DK Yarn undyed

Description

Sheep DK yarn undyed.

This is the DK 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 undyed shade is the perfect backdrop for our other Yorkshire-inspired shades. It is fabulous for stranded knitting and other colour work because it has the necessary sticky qualities to support steeking. Its lustre also means it is simply beautiful on its own, so it will really showcase your stitch definition and cables.
