Zebra Finch - Wensleydale/Silk

Zebra Finch is such a glorious mix of chestnut, fawn, deep pink and cream that it just begs to be dyed onto a fibre that takes colour as richly as this Wensleydale and silk blend. It positively glows. 

50% Wensleydale / 50% Tussah silk

This blend takes colour beautifully, and spins like a dream into a silky, lustrous, drapey yarn.  The staple length of the Wensleydale/silk blend is between 8 and 12 inches, and the long fibres mean that it can cope with a lot less twist than shorter staple fibres.

The addition of silk to Wensleydale makes a delicious fibre that, when spun softly, has a fabulous drape and shine. It's just magical.

Each braid weighs 100g.
