British Hand Dyed Stein Fine Wool

In search of the ultimate fibre we started to develop our own breed. What did we want from the perfect knitting yarn, softness of course, but more than that. We wanted it to have character and lustre. Ten years of selective breeding has led to our own Stein Fine Wool® flock. 19 micron with an incredible softness value and fabulous handle. As close as it gets to cashmere!

From the very start of our fibres journey, lambing through to shearing, spinning and hand dyeing it is all done on the farm. Every single step quality checked, loved and cared for by us. Farming ethically and sustainably to produce incredible quality yarns 

Good stitch definition, slight bloom when blocked, very soft silky handle.
