A 100g hank of undyed DK wool for hand knitting. Manufactured exclusively by Glencroft from fleeces collected from two farms within 5 miles of our warehouse in Clapham, Yorkshire Dales.

The wool contains all the sheep breeds on these local farms - Dalesbred, Blue Face Leicester (BFL), North of England Mule and Texel.

It has produced a beautiful DK weight yarn with a reasonably soft handle. The wool is certified as "British Wool Traceable" and of course has the gorgeous smell of real wool.

This is undyed so is predominately a natural cream colour with a tiny amount of darker black and brown wool fibres.

Each hank also has a link on the label to three free knitting patterns created by our local hand knit expert Sandra Oakeshott; for a bias scarf, child's hat & scarf and fingerless mittens.

Tension - 30 rows x 27 sts - 10cm (4") sq - 4mm needles / crochet

Length - 220 metres / 240 yard approx

Materials

Clapdale Wool: Our wool is sourced from 7 farms within 10 miles of Glencroft's Yorkshire Dales home, in the dale of 'Clapdale'. Our farmers are paid more for their wool than at auction and receive a share of the profits of every product sold. The wool is then processed, from farm to yarn, within just 50 miles of the sheep it comes from. Certified as Traceable British Wool.
