This beautiful lace weight yarn from John Arbon is a true celebration of their west country heritage, from the composition of the yarn to the name with each colour named after a different variaty apple grown there.

A simply stunning yarn from Krea Deluxe but I may be biased because I love lace yarns, natural fibres and soft, restful colours. This yarn ticks all those boxes and can be used on it’s own or with another. It works well with the Krea wool as well as with silk or other natural yarns but does look and feel stunning on it’s own. I am in love and want to snaffle it all.
Each ball is 20g/240m. 45% silk, 33% mohair, 22% baby alpaca.
Handwash and do not tumble dry.

At The Lace Knittery we hand paint and naturally dye our own range of yarns and fibre. All are natural fibres and traceable to source, ethically produced and in our dyeing processes do not use harsh chemicals.
The hand painted range is dyed by me at The Lace Knittery HQ in Somerset. Each skein has the colour applied by hand and pushed in inch by inch. This means an even colour, no gaps and a soft drift of colours across the skein.
They are washed several times to remove any excess dye.
They are all inspired by the world around me and the myth, magic and beauty of these British Isles.
Each skein is 100g 800m (enough to knit an entire wrap)
70% baby alpaca, 20% silk 10% cashmere.

I love this yarn it is one of my favourites to both dye and use. It is lace weight and is a mix of a British wool breed and silk. It has incredible lustre and drape. Blue Faced Leicester breed has a property like linen in that it gets softer with use and age. A single skein is enough for an entire wrap.
Each skein is 100g/800m. 55% blue faced Leicester wool, 45% silk. Lace weight.
