This luxury British breed blend is a staple yarn in any stash, with each shade inspired by English woodland. This soft yarn is comfortable worn next to the skin making it ideal for sweaters, scarves and hats. • Woodnote is a blend of 3 wools: Bluefaced Leicester, Masham, and Merino. 100% of our wool comes from non-mulesed sheep. • Bluefaced Leister evolved during the last century in the Tyne & Wear Valleys and the hills of east Cumbria. This breed produces a fine, long-staple wool that is known for its softness and lustre. As well as being soft, this fibre also holds the strength needed to create long-lasting garments that can be treasured over time. With a broad muzzle and tightly curled, semi-lustrous wool, it is the dark blue skin on the sheep’s head that gave the breed its name. • Masham sheep are produced by crossing a Teeswater or Wensleydale ram with a Northern hill ewe such as the Swaledale or Dalesbred. This hardy sheep produces a soft, demi-lustre fleece. • Developed in Spain, Merino sheep are world famous for having one of the highest quality fleece of any breed. The short and fine fibres used in Merino yarn create a luxurious and soft texture that has all the resilience needed to create a long-lasting piece of knitwear. • Fiber Content 34% Bluefaced Leicester, 33% Masham, 33% Merino • Yardage approx. 223 yds per 100g • Gauge 24 sts = 4” / 10cm • Care Instructions Hand wash in cool water.
