This yarn is made from the fleeces from a local mixed flock of sheep who are of crosses of various British sheep breeds. In this particular blend there are crosses of Welsh, Shetland, Jacob and Ryland from about 8 sheep.  So it's a small run but absoutely fabulous in terms of softness and colour. We had it spun in both 4 ply and Double Knit weigts. You can buy the Double Knit  in  100g skeins
