What is Blue Face Leicester, you might ask???
The Blue Face Leicester sheep is originally from England (BTW, exactly where this wool is from, too).
Strong, lustrous, very soft, springy - considered a luxury wool.
Lovingly referred to as wool's answer to cashmere.
And to make this even more loveable, we had it processed so it's machine washable and dryable!

PLEASE NOTE: Do not wash by hand!!
If you want this yarn to reach it's full potential, wash in washing machine and dry in the dryer!
Because of the tighter twist, this gets softer and fluffier the more it's washed this way.
