Daughter of a Shepherd Heritage DK
Daughter of a Shepherd. Limited Edition.
With a soft halo and sturdy structure and 100% British this great Limited Edition yarn has a nice bounce and great depth.
Fleeces grown, scoured and spun in the UK
The overall colour is a complex dark pitch brown with a reddish tint which becomes becomes silvery grey or tan in different lights. A soft handle produces a fabric with bounce and structure when knitted. The yarn retains its original signature scent of the fields, flock and new lambs in straw-filled barns and I am thrilled to bits with it!
The Hebridean fleece is from the original 23rd July 2015 Escrick Park Estate clip and the Zwartbles comes from Exmoor, not far from the mill where the yarn is spun.
