Description

Excelana North DK - Trefusis100% British wool, grown, sheared and spun in Britain and hand dyed in house by Susan and her daughter, Charlie, at their Lake District dye studio, "A Room Of My Own". A DK weight yarn, it is worsted spun for a soft handle, and works exquisitely for Fair Isle projects as well as textured and lace stitches, blocking and holding its shape beautifully. Despite its softness, Excelana is a sturdy yarn that doesn't pill easily. 250 metres 273 yards per 100g
