100% BFL Wool ‘Wattle & Daub’
This 100% BFL Wool ‘Wattle & Daub’ is a Fingering/4 Ply wool, spun with a twist. It’s hand-dyed, by me, in my home studio near Angoulême, France. My 100% BFL Wool ‘Wattle & Daub’ is a variegated and speckled dye type, hand-dyed in a soft yellow, with added green and brown speckles. BFL wool is very soft on the skin, yet because the fleece has a long staple length, it’s hard wearing and naturally resistant to pilling – so perfect for socks – no need for nylon!
My 100% BFL Wool ‘Wattle & Daub’ is a sumptuous, soft, yet strong yarn. Of course, my 100% BFL Wool ‘Wattle & Daub’ is great for knitting socks, but it’s also great for larger garments and knits up beautifully for shawls, cowls, hats, mittens and scarves. All of my BFL is from small, well-managed British farms. These farms adhere to high animal welfare standards. The wool is spun in British mills.
Please Note: Even my repeatable colourways are hand-dyed in small batches of 5 skeins because of my fastidious quality control methods. I put only one batch into the shop at a time, so please make sure you buy enough yarn to complete your intended project.
Your Happiness is a Priority for Me
I prioritise the quality of my hand-dyeing process, check carefully for tangles and take care that photographs represent the actual product as closely as possible. I think about what I, as an avid knitter, would like to receive after placing an order with a small business.
