The Bluefaced Leicester comes from two flocks here on the Black Isle – Wester Raddery and Craiglands are each just a handful of miles from my home in Fortrose. These two flocks of majestic-looking Bluefaced Leicesters produce typically fine, silky and lustrous fleeces. The Suri Alpaca used in this blend is sourced from a small flock in the north of England. The natural silver is a blend of several undyed shades, giving a heathery depth to the silver grey colour. There is also a natural white version which takes natural dyes beautifully.
This special luxury yarn was beautifully spun by The Border Mill in the Scottish Borders.
BFL Suri is ideal for the Timely Cardigan, Avoch Shawl and many other projects!
