BLUEBELLA 80/20: Approximately 115g/425 yards 80/20 superwash Bluefaced Leicester (BFL) wool and silk. This is fingering weight yarn, three plies.

These were kettle-dyed a tonal golden yellow with light blonde to pale brown areas with some yellow spots. There is a very small amount of fuzzy brown speckling on each hank.

This BFL is not “smooshy” like Merino. It is a bit rustic, hard-wearing, tends not to pill and softens greatly over time, which makes it ideal for socks (though I like it for just about anything). Please hand-wash this base, despite it being superwash. Blended with silk, it’s dense, shiny, crisp and absolutely lovely! Try a lace project with it and you’ll be thrilled with the results.

For a long, gorgeous life gently hand wash your garment in tepid water, shape a little while wet and lay flat to dry.
