BLUEBEL 75/25: Approximately 100g/463yds 75/25 superwash Bluefaced Leicester (BFL) wool/nylon, 4 plies.
These were kettle-dyed a tonal tan/blush then speckled with teal, turquoise, gold, ochre and 2 large spots of vermillion on each hank. They are quite variegated and each is unique though all share the same colours. Note that heavily speckled colourways usually vary from batch to batch and from hank to hank within a batch.
This plump, shiny and tough (!) yarn is great just about any fine fingering weight project. It is perfect for socks, accessories and baby garments and with its drape and generous yardage, it’s ideal for shawls. Note that it is BFL and not quite as soft and smooshy as Merino - some with sensitivities may not like it next-to-skin.
While this is superwash treated, I recommend hand washing and drying flat to maintain optimum colour and texture.
