Seafarer Sport from John Arbon Textiles is a sport weight yarn with a quiet confidence about it - versatile enough to suit a wide range of projects, from everyday accessories through to hardwearing garments that need to stand up to regular use. The fibre blend is a thoughtful one: trusty Devonian wool, with its natural resilience and character, is paired with silk to create a yarn that punches above its weight in both looks and longevity. The wool provides the structure, warmth, and durability you'd expect from a British breed fibre, while the silk contributes a subtle lustre and a smooth, refined handle that gives finished pieces a quietly opulent quality. It's the kind of yarn that doesn't need to shout - the combination of fibres does the work, producing a fabric that feels considered and well-made, and that wears beautifully over time. For knitters who appreciate yarns rooted in a sense of place and craft, Seafarer Sport, made in Devon with local wool at its heart, has a great deal to offer.
