Starting at the British wool auction in Bradford, the wool is scoured, combed, spun, dyed, steamed and hanked in the county of Yorkshire.
An intimate blend of 50% luxurious Bluefaced Leicester and 50% hardwearing Masham, in a fine 4-ply weight, this is a truly local wool, with its roots in the heartland of British textile manufacturing.
