Wallis + Barcombe + Diamond Blend – Light DK | 80% British Wool (Kent Romney) & 20% British Alpaca | Undyed Natural Light Grey
Introducing our second sheep–alpaca collaboration yarn! This beautifully soft and subtly heathered DK weight yarn is a luxurious blend of:
80% Kent Romney wool which is a blend of Susanna's small white Romney flock at Barcombe and a small content of Roger’s small flock of Black Romney's at Diamond Farm, Horam
20% alpaca fleece from the lovely Ernie the Alpaca at Wallis Farm, Pyecombe
Both fibres are grown in Sussex and spun just a few miles from their origin. The result is a yarn that combines the strength and structure of Romney with the buttery softness and drape of alpaca, in a gorgeous undyed light grey shade.
