Description
Handspun yarn, dark yarn, hand dyed wool, rare breed, wensleydale, hand painted, blue, black
<br />I hand spun this from traditional longwool Wensleydale fleece from Yorkshire UK. I then hand painted the skeins in strong dark colours, inspired by a Jay's wing feather - black, charcoal and purple with a flash of turquoise and green.
<br />This yarn was spun from tops, so it is smooth and fairly uniform. It is self-plied. It has kept its lustre, is soft and has a slight halo.
