Description

Made in England’s historical textile region of West Yorkshire, Lore is 100% lambswool from the Romney sheep, locally known as Kent lamb. It is an honest woollen-spun DK weight yarn that blooms beautifully after washing, making it a perfect yarn for colourwork. Garments made from Lore will wear well and are perfect for everyday and special adventures alike.

“Lore is a Romney lambswool that has been woollen-spun, and it feels wonderfully woolly yet soft to work with. It gives a warm fabric with distinct stitches that bloom beautifully with washing - it would make an excellent choice for Fair Isle projects. The colour palette offers 23 heathered shades, ranging from handsome neutrals to brighter blues, pinks and orange. ” – The Knitter, Issue 194
