NEW: Hand stitched Sami Reindeer and Fish leather bags and pouches.
This yarn reminds me of the rich spices and colours of the Orient - turmeric, curry, spciy greeen and orange peppers.

Full description
The colours were inspired by the rich shades of the orient.
This handspun yarn is a blend of Shetland and Corriedale wool. It has been hand dyed using eco-friendly dyes and hand carded to give it a unique heathery blend of yellow golds with flecks of orange and green..
Approx 60 gram skein, 80 yards
Sample has been hand knit using 6 mm knitting needles.
Yarns are locally sourced from sheep that graze in the downs of West Sussex. Because the fleece has been cleaned, washed and carded by hand, there may be a few woody bits still in the yarn. These will naturally fall out with use. To care for this yarn, please hand wash in cold water using a gentle soap.
This yarn would be lovely knit up into a scarf. You would need approx. 100 grams. You can find a simple scarf knitting pattern at:
