At West Yorkshire Spinners they love having the freedom to work with the finest natural fibres available. This allows us to create truly exceptional and unique products. When developing Exquisite Lace we wanted to blend materials that worked in harmony to create a yarn with superior technical specification, softness and handle.
Exquisite contains 80% of the finest Falkland Island Wool and 20% Mulberry Silk. Falkland Wool is one of the world’s purest fleeces and perfectly complements the Mulberry Silk which is the highest quality silk available for purchase. The finished result is one of the most luxurious lace yarns on the market.
Note - the colours may appear slightly differently than they actually are (due to differences in computer monitors).
