Care: Hand Wash Only, do not tumble dry, reshape whilst damp.
A truly British yarn local and exclusive to our shop!
The 66% Wensleydale and 33% Zwartbles blend add bounce and strength to the fibre and increase the depth of colour. Hand-dyed at the Border Mill in funky yet earthy colours That have been named after plants found at Chilton Grounds Farm.
We have personally seen the love and care given to Diana's flock and can whole heartedly say that happy sheep make some of the best quality yarn we have seen.
Truly local and British; Chilton Wensleydales Yarn is a testament to four generations of sustainable farming and love for nature. The Parker family cherishes their Pedigree Zwartbles and Wensleydales, prized for their high-quality wool, perfect for knitting, felting, and dyeing. Here, the land is farmed without artificial fertilisers or chemicals, and the wool is processed naturally, washed in rainwater. Each skein embodies their legacy, a blend of rich traditions, sustainable practices, and an unwavering commitment to the preservation of natural fibres and the environment.
