West Yorkshire Spinners Fleece Bluefaced Leicester DK 100g
-
Published Friday, 13 March 20265 out of 5A very lovely wool to knit with, gives super stitch definition while remaining soft and very next-to-skin friendly. I knitted the ‘Brook’ shade and it is absolutely gorgeous. I bought mine online direct before I realized that R/Rose have stock - a very gorgeous, wooly yarn, my jersey remains as good as new, three years later.
