About Wold Worsted

100% British wool - 50% Southdown, 25% Bluefaced Leicester, 25% Shetland
159 metres / 174 yards per 100g skein.
Recommended gauge: 17.5 sts to 10cm (4in) using 5.5 mm needles.

This artisanal yarn is a unique blend of the wool of three British sheep breeds known for their beautiful fleeces, Southdown, Bluefaced Leicester and Shetland, creating a fabulously soft white yarn with bounce and spring.

Wold Worsted comes in both 100gm and 25gm skeins.

Wold Worsted is hand-dyed here at our Lake District dye studio, on the natural, undyed, non-superwash, white yarn. Wold takes colour exceptionally well, producing strong, semi-solid shades.

About Moss Covered Wall:  On the shaded sides of old stone walls all around farms and country lanes, moss grows. Vibrant and vivid it covers the damp stone in glorious tones of acidic greens. Moss Covered Wall shimmers with yellow-green tones celebrating the colours of these wonderful plants.
