Ore (Cloudy) Mendip DK - Hand-dyed British wool yarn
Ore (Cloudy)
£12.00
Mendip DK is a bouncy, airy lambswool yarn spun in the UK, sourced from a single flock of Shetland-cross sheep that graze atop the Mendip Hills in Somerset, South-West England. The wool is taken from the lambs' first shearing, meaning it's a lovely soft fibre for a relatively rustic yarn.
This springy, woollen-spun British wool yarn is hand-dyed in semi-solid colours from my studio in Wiltshire.
Ore is a soft, cool brick red, inspired by the iron ore that gives the soil in some parts of the South-West its distinctive colour.
