The beautiful depth of colour from the tweedy flecks bring something special to any woolen item, however this yarn really excels in traditional style garments.
Set in the village of New Lanark, on the banks of the River Clyde in South Lanarkshire, New Lanark Mills specialise in producing fantastic quality woolen yarn with very traditional methods on a 19th century spinning mule. This heritage site is both a tourist destination and working mill, with yarn purchases helping support the site.
Care: Gently hand wash colours separately in cool water.
