100% Bluefaced Leicester Wool sourced from Britian and spun into a 3 ply DK weight yarn. BFL wool is long stapled and silky, which makes for a hearty yarn. This yarn would be an excellent choice for a sweater, but it will work up well into all kinds of wooly accessories too. This yarn would also make good knit-to-felt projects. 

Cascade BFL is not a superwash yarn.  It felts nicely for projects like slippers or handbags.  For other garments, please hand wash in cold water and lay flat to dry.
