Marie Wallin British Breeds

After two years of development and worsted spinning at John Arbon Mill in Devon, this yarn showcases a stunning melange effect. Blended from four British sheep breeds, it combines the softness of Bluefaced Leicester and Exmoor Horn, the strength and lustre of Romney, and the bouncy springiness of Zwartbles.
