  • This unique shade is a rich blend of the of the most vibrant red brown/tan/rust, almost ginger hues. It was inspired by our distinctive, bonny Highland cattle, found all over the hills and moors of Scotland.
  • High quality, two fold yarn, with relatively high twist, helps prevent shedding and pilling, adding durability to your finished woolly creation, without compromising on looks.
  • As with most good quality wool yarns, this wool will soften slightly and fluff up after its first wash, but it will probably never be something that you would want to wear next to your skin or put on a baby! But, it is perfect for hard-wearing outerwear garments.
  • The natural, insulating, pure wool fibres keep in warmth but allow your body to breathe at the same time. 
  • Knit it loosely for bulk and warmth or knit tightly to keep out the wind.
  •  It knits the ultimate warm jumpers/sweaters, jackets and hard wearing household items, amongst many other items of woolly gorgeousness.
  • I am only selling this yarn as I had more than I needed for my projects.
  • Everyone's tension/gauge is different, but I knit this yarn on 4.00mm needles (USA 6) and I get 20 stitches and 28 rows to a 4" (10cm) square.
  • Thick double knitting weight.
  • This listing is for 100g of yarn. Multiple purchases will all be supplied all from the same dye lot.
  • Approximate length per 100g = 260 yards (approx. 235m).
  • Despatch will be the next working day after receipt of payment (sometimes the same day that payment is received).
  • I have accurately matched the colour on my screen, but please be aware that all computer screens are different, so there may be a colour variation at your end.
