Colours of Caithness - Natural Undyed Sheep White

Double Knitting Weight Yarn
500g British Pure 100% New Wool 
*Limited Edition*

UK postage only £2.90 for as much wool as you like

A medium thickness, relatively soft and strong, traditional, high quality yarn, to create a perfect balance between durability, softness and breathability. This combination ensures that your your finished, garment will be comfortable, hard wearing and will retain its good looks.

Please see my other listings for lots more British wool.
  • This unique yarn is a skilful blend British breeds, in its natural undyed form. It is a fine tribute to the sheep, found all over the hills and glens of Scotland.
  • High quality, four fold yarn, with relatively high twist, helps prevent shedding and pilling, adding durability to your finished woolly creation, without compromising on looks and softness. I would describe it as crispy and bouncy, but not scratchy.
  • Four fold construction also makes for good stitch definition.
  • The perfect colour to show off cabled patterns and textured stitches to maximum effect.
  • Ideal for indi-dyers, to make graduated sets.
  • As with most good quality wool yarns, this wool will soften and fluff up after its first wash. I would be happy to wear this wool next to my skin, but everyone is different.
  • 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.
  • Knits the ultimate warm outdoor jumpers/sweaters, jackets and 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.
  • Double knitting weight.
  • This listing is for 500g of yarn, supplied in twenty skeins, all from the same dye lot.
  • Approximate length per 25g = 70 yards (approx. 63m), so you will receive 1400 yards (1260m) in total.
  • 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.
