YARN

STITCH AND TEXTURES SO DEFINED AND LOVELY DRAPE IN THIS SHAWL.

All the Harwood range of garments can be made with any of the yarns ,they all knit to the

same gauge so choosing between the beautiful natural colour of the BFL/SHETLAND or the rich natural chocolate colour in our

Z W A R T B L E S o r g o The Bfl also comes in a Cornish cream with the r a n g e o f h a n d - d y e d pure BFL. shades.Each year we change our base colour All the yarns are worsted to add variance to the spun and 100% British scheme . from Fleece to Finish.


PROVENANCE

This is the main reason I became a yarn producer,I need to see where my yarn comes from.The yarn comes from sheep I can visit every day and the Zwartbles are often at my fence all year round.The Shetlands and the Blue faced Leicester just over the hill and the prized Rare breed Teeswater just along the valley.The clip is used from the same flock for the whole batch ,there is no mixing from differing flocks and this also gives better yarn.

These animals survive harsh conditions at over 1400ft high up in the North Pennines and produce prized wool.

Holey Moley Shawl

the triangular half mesh shawl is the worked from the top down producing beautiful shaded variances on the colour from the mesh side to the solid.

Zwartbles yarn differs slightly every year and ranges form very dk chocolate colour to rich milk chocolate. I believe this is a weather variable.
