Kala ~ Cotswold with Suffolk and Arcott ~ undyed ~ Fingering weight ~ 238 metres (260 yards)

$25.00

Kala's wool has a lovely, lustrous sheen that showcases her beautiful yarn.  Kala is 75% Cotswold, 12.5% Suffolk, and 12.5% Arcott spun into 238 metres (260 yards) of Fingering weight yarn.

Kala is a unique combination of breeds that give strength and durability (Suffolk and Cotswold) to the beautiful lustre found in Arcott and Cotswold wool.  This yarn is also excellent for dyeing, and soaks up colour beautifully.

The blend of fibres makes Kala's yarn a wonderfully shimmery, durable garment, and will drape particularly well.

Notes :

This wool was grown by a ewe named Kala by Farmer Dell in Alberta and processed at a family-run fibre mill also in Rosebud, Alberta.  You can be sure that your yarn has been handled with love in all stages of its production. 

Due to the slow method of transforming raw wool into yarn, each small batch is one of a kind and will reference the individual sheep who grew the fibre.  Please ensure you purchase the right amount for your project as given the nature of small batch yarn, there may be variations in fleeces from year to year.

Enjoy using this Canadian farm raised yarn from Kala.  We hope that the garment you create brings great joy and perhaps becomes an heirloom piece in your wardrobe.

 

Please understand that all attempts have been made to accurately photograph the colour of this yarn.  Due to the range of individual settings on computers, there may be unavoidable colour variance.
