Knit by Numbers is our glorious 50% BFL /50% Merino blend, available in 4ply and DK, (as well as mini skeins) in all its rainbow glory.
We are passionate about trying to use as much UK-grown fibre as possible (both to lower transport emissions and support our local wool-growing industry) and adding 50% Bluefaced Leicester to sumptuous Falklands Merino is certainly helping us achieve that. BFL is the absolute softest of British breeds so this scrumptious base is still soft enough to wear next to the skin (even in the most delicate areas), but also adds lustre and drape.
The innovative colour palette aims to provide the precise shade required. Each colour range is available in 6 shades – going from dark to light, and each colour is given a unique number reference, rather than a name, hence the range being called Knit By Numbers.
