DK Fully Traceable British Wool in Toffee

This DK (double knit) weight yarn is made from carefully selected fully traceable to the farm, British mainland wool. These small scale farms typically raise sheep on pasture, ensuring ethical practices whilst supporting local agriculture. Spun by Yorkshire based Laxton's this yarn is both soft and durable, making it ideal for a wide range of knitting and crocheting projects.

Each spinning batch comes with it's on QR code (pictured) linking you to details of the farm and the yarns journey before arriving at LiWOR HQ. I have also added the link here 

This yarn has been hand dyed using responsibly sourced plant based natural dyes, giving a unique colouration to the fabric. To achieve this shade I have used waste ground coffee from a local manufacturer.

A 100g ball will give roughly 245 meters the suggested knitting needle size is UK size 3.75-4.5mm (US 5 - 7) and for crochet hooks UK 4.5-5.5mm (US 7 - I/9) but making a tension square before starting a new projected is recommended.
