A small batch of Corriedale and dark Romney dyed blue in the fleece and processed in the mill. Blue with tinge of black. Second photo is closest to true colour.

Weight/ply :  Heavy DK / Worsted Weight (8 to 10 ply)

Fibre: Corriedale 80% and Romney lamb 20%

Meterage: 180m (195 yd) / 100g

Recommended needles: 4 to 6 mm (US 6 to 8)

Approximate gauge:

Due to the nature of my small batch mill, yarn is not like fully commercial yarn and often looks more like a handspun with variations in thickness throughout the yarn.  Each batch is measured on a McMorrin scale to give an approximate length per 100g.  Please enjoy the non-commercial qualities of the yarn.  

Care Instructions:  All of my yarn is non-superwash.  Gentle wash with appropriate product such as Powerscour® Fibre wash.  Do not wring.  Towel dry and then lay flat until completely dry (in the shade).  With pure wool only occasional washing is recommended.
