The special blend of 80% BFL (Bluefaced Leicester) and 20% mohair shimmers with an elegant luster and flows effortlessly over your needles as you knit. The wool from BFL sheep is soft, durable, and takes dye exceptionally well, giving it a fine, natural sheen. The luxurious mohair added to the mix ensures fluffy socks that are long-lasting and made entirely from natural materials. This is not only good for your feet but also for the environment.
It is also perfect for knitting shawls and sweaters. Or how about a lightweight tunic? This luxurious and extraordinary yarn leaves no desires unfulfilled.
Bluefaced Leicester wool is the most renowned and popular wool on the market after Merino wool. Unfortunately, there are not nearly enough sheep to meet the current demand. As a result, the price for BFL has increased by about 300% in recent years. We were determined to create this sock yarn without superwash treatment and synthetic fibers and believe that you will soon fall in love with it too.
The carefully selected colors are perfectly coordinated and reflect Erika Knight's motto "Born in Britain". Let your creativity run wild—this yarn is ideal for everyone who loves to knit socks. Try it out and let Moorland Mohair inspire your knitting projects!
Tip: Judge your knitting after washing! Due to the fine 2-ply twist, the knit might look a bit uneven before washing but becomes wonderfully even and beautiful after washing.
