The Fibre Company have developed the Cumbria yarn a lustrous blend of brown wool from the English breed of masham sheep, fine merino wool and mohair.

The resulting light brown-grey shade is then over-dyed creating lovely deep saturated colours. The cream shade uses natural ecru masham.

Note - the colours may appear slightly differently than they actually are (due to differences in computer monitors).
