Description

England’s stunning north-western landscape with its deep blue lakes and sheep-grazed fells inspired this classic worsted-weight yarn made from fine Merino for softness, wool from the English Masham sheep for a beautiful heathered color and Argentinian mohair for strength and luster. Fabrics made from Cumbria are soft yet strong, making it a perfect yarn for everyday knitwear.

“The unique combination creates a fabric with great stitch definition and next-to-skin softness. Choose from shades inspired by the mood, light and places of the UK’s North West.” – The Knitter, Issue 145
