Description

Britannia DK is a blend of BFL (Blueface Leicester) and Masham.

When spun, the mixture creates a marbled effect.

When dyed, the color result is deep and marbled due to the brown Masham fibers in the background.

Britannia, this beautiful Englishwoman will surprise you!

Although underneath its rustic appearance, hides a dry wool with a certain surprising softness.

Composition:

75% BFL and 25% Masham DK size.

 

Britannia is very pleasant to knit. Ideal for all garments and accessories. The resulting fabric is light and warm.

 

Our wools are hand-dyed. Therefore, please allow for the quantity needed for your projects, as the color may vary from one bath to another. We take great care to reproduce the color of our images as faithfully as possible, however, screen displays may vary. As a result, the color of the skeins you receive may vary slightly from the photo displayed. For more uniform knitting, I recommend that you alternate your skeins.
