YARNADELIC SPORT - BLUE MONDAY

Yarnadelic Sport from John Arbon Textiles is a beautifully versatile sport-weight yarn, ideal for everything from intricate cables and delicate lace to garments and accessories. Its rounded 3-ply structure gives excellent stitch definition and a satisfying bounce that's a joy to work with. Spun from 100% Falkland Corriedale - a breed with around a century of history, born from crossing Merino with Lincoln Longwool - it brings a wonderful combination of softness, strength, and rustic character to every project.

Commercially dyed yarn is dyed in large vats, usually made into large hanks of 1 kilo or more. The yarn is dyed to an extremely precise, all over colour using gradually rising heat. You can generally expect commercially dyed yarn to be very even and dye baths to be exact.

Commercially dyed yarn is wonderful for projects where you want a consistent, all over colour, or even colourwork pieces like fair isle or stranded knitting.

• Items made from 100% Wool should be washed by hand in cold or lukewarm water with a gentle rinse-free detergent. Use very little agitation when washing so as not to felt or full the fabric. Never wring or twist handmade woollen items when washing.
• Gently squeeze as much water as possible, roll in a towel and press moisture out. Then lay your finished piece flat to dry.

Wool does not need to be washed after every wear as it is a natural, breathable product. When you can see (or, rarely, smell) that a woollen item is in need of washing, follow the above instructions

Wool has countless benefits, including being

• 100% Natural
• Warm yet breathable
• Biodegradable
• Sustainable & Renewable
• Carbon Negative
• Flame retardant (safe for babies - and all humans)
• Wrinkle resistent
• Wicks water to the centre of the fibre keeping the fabric surface dry, even when damp
