Masham and Leicester Fingering - POW! (discontinued base)

The Uncommon Thread

Masham and Leicester Fingering - POW! (discontinued base)

Approx 100g – 75% Blue Faced Leicester wool, 25% Masham wool
240m (262yds) per 100g – DK weight

A 100% British yarn: processed and spun in Yorkshire from British wool, hand dyed on the south coast of England! This yarn has been dyed in collaboration with Fil Chofu. It is only available to purchase from Fil Chofu and us. The BFL is a white wool, the Masham is a brown wool. We overdye the heathered yarn and this produces interesting new colours from our classic colourways. 

An interesting texture, soft and fuzzy. Fantastic for fair isle and colourwork. Non-superwash - please wash your garments by hand.

20% VAT will be charged on parcels being sent within the UK, EU VAT at your country's rate

As with other hand dyed yarns, we would recommend alternating skeins every two rows or so.

We care deeply about the environment and we're aware of the effects that chemicals can have on it, so we make every effort to exhaust all dyes in the dyebath so that no nasties go down the plughole. It is not always possible to exhaust *all* the dye, all the time, especially with certain dyeing techniques, so if you are intending on using your yarn for colourwork or with paler colours it pays to give it a wash first, just to be sure.

We try to ensure all colours look true on our monitor but they can vary substantially. If you’re unsure about a particular colourway please get in touch!
