Description
The striking two-coloured coats of Jacob sheep inspired us to create this unique yarn, with three distinct bases combining variations of the natural fleece colours, which are then made into a spun marl, much more subtle than the traditional plied versions..
The yarn comes in 4-ply and Double Knitting and is worsted spun giving it a smoother handle and wonderful stitch definition, making it ideal for garments and shawls. Despite its smoothness, Jacob is also hardwearing enough for outerwear and accessories, even socks.
