Seaside BFL/Merino Batty Double Take Set
Two approximately equal sized amount of fibre of the same composition and color are carded two different ways to achieve complimenting batts that are equally beautiful and fun to spin. Sisters, not twins!
This mostly BFL batt has fine merino pops blended throughout.
BFL wool is a long and lustrous soft wool. It has a soft handle. The yarn spun from this wool will have a lovely sheen and can have a beautiful drape. It is well suited for next to skin items, even socks!
85% Blue Faced Leicester wool (combed tops undyed and hand dyed colors). 15% Fine Merino wool (hand dyed comb top).
Total weight approximately 100g (set of two batts).
No batts are exactly the same... It is what makes them special.
You may encounter some VM (vegetable matter like plant bits, hay, etc.) specially with Farm Fibre because sheep do sheep things, right? I try my best to remove them all but a few will escape my eagle eye. Just pause, pick them off, and spin away!
Colors may appear differently on different fibres/fibre blends. Different settings on digital devices may also show colors differently on your screen.
Hand wash completed projects in cold water with a gentle detergent if needed. Lay flat and/or shape to dry. Some slight dye run off for the first couple of washes may occur, specially with highly saturated colors.
IMPORTANT REMINDER: All Sales are Final. Please read the yarn/fibre information and FAQs, refund and shipping policies before completing your order.
The yarn bases I use are sourced from mills with best farming practices in Italy and South America, and are mulesing free.
