Boats and Beach Huts - Polwarth

I used to live in Bournemouth, and when I was pregnant with my first child, I'd go for December walks along the beach, looking at the oystercatchers and soaking up the wildness of a winter shoreline.  Boats and Beach Huts reminds me of those walks - the colourful beach huts shut up for the season, the grey sea and the long stretch of sand. It's quite a nostalgic colourway for me!

100% Polwarth

Polwarth is gorgeous wool to work with.  It is almost as soft as Merino, and has a beautiful crimp and texture.  It absorbs light, which means that it isn't very lustrous, but takes colour with a beautiful, velvety intensity.  When felted or spun, it poofs up with a delightful squishiness.  It has plenty of elasticity, and is perfect for next to skin wear, such as scarves, gloves or sweaters. This Polwarth is sourced from the Falkland Islands.

Each braid weighs approximately 100g.
