- Cotswold Wool 4-ply (175m/50g)

The Cotswold sheep, often referred to as the 'Cotswold Lion', was introduced to the UK by the Romans. Their wool - known as the 'Golden Fleece' - was an important export. It not only played a major role in the development of many Cotswold towns and villages, but also in the finances of the nation. Sadly times have changed, and they are now classified as a rare breed.
We are pleased to have been able to source this yarn direct from a producer with a small pedigree herd of Cotswold Sheep in Gloucestershire. The fleece is one of the lustre breeds and takes dye beautifully. We currently have the hand-painted 100% British Wool yarn in 50g/175m skeins, ideal for Fair Isle and other colourwork techniques. Two skeins will make our Lindsay Fair Isle Hat design pictured right.
We are also dyeing larger quantities of this yarn for those who would like to make a garment. If you need more skeins than are shown, or would prefer a different colour, please contact us to arrange a custom order in the quantity and colourway required.
