If you love Bluefaced Leicester, this is a great core yarn to have in your range. This is a lovely, strong, robust yarn with a gentle, toothy texture. Our Bluefaced Leicester fibre takes the dye really well. It is suitable for all dyeing styles, including speckles. The yarn makes a nice lightweight fabric, with an even stitch definition. This would also be suitable for socks if knitted on a tight gauge (2.25mm needles).
