Description

 

From the Dales we bring you Dales Twist, a beautiful worsted spun yarn created from a heady mix of fleece, including:

 

  • Alpaca — raised in Dentdale at Peggleswright Farm
  • Cheviot — raised near Kendal in Cumbria
  • Hebridean — raised in Sedbergh and Windermere in Cumbria
  • Ryeland — raised by a young teenager in Coverdale, Yorkshire Dales
  • Black Wensleydale — from Hill Top Farm in Malham, Yorkshire Dales
  • Bluefaced Leicester — from farms in Dentdale, Garsdale, Ravenstonedale, and Malhamdale
  • and a handful of Black Welsh Mountain from a pedigree flock living on the shores of Loch Nevis in Scotland

Dales Twist was spun in West Yorkshire and is available in two naturally coloured (undyed) shades:

  • Ash — a mid-grey
  • Shale — a brown-grey

They look lovely together and they weave beautifully across our classic BFL and Cumbrian Tweed singles yarns.  This yarn is strong enough to be used as a warp but needs a bit of patience and a looser sett due to its slightly hairy nature.

  • yarn count:  2/10 Nm
  • approx. 5000m/kg
  • twist:  S
  • If you are interested in purchasing more than 2kg in total please contact me directly for a discounted price.
