Full description

This is a 100% Bluefaced Leicester Super wash 4 ply no nylon high twist sock yarn, naturally hand dyed in the Yorkshire Dales , the yarn is locally spun just down the valley from me and is a Worstead spun yarn .

This yarn is a hand painted with natural dyes then Eco printed with plant elements when steamed to set the colours. This technique has produced a beautiful variegated yarn with a myriad of muted and earthy greens browns and golden yellow .

I only use natural dyes to dye yarn with, in both plant form and extract as well as minerals and insect ( e.g. Cochineal and Lac which are both scale insects which have been used traditionally for hundreds of years ) . I usually use Alum & Cream of Tartar to modify my yarn .
