Blue John (BFL Nep)

The Peak District is famous as one of the few places on earth where you can find Blue John – a bluey/purpley mineral made of flourite  This colourway was inspired by this mineral.  Hand-dyed onto a super-soft bluefaced leicester nep yarn, shades of brown, grey and vibrant bluey-purple are randomly applied, with the grey/black nep adding extra texture.  With 15% nylon nep for added strength, it is a perfect yarn for socks or a one-skein shawl.

Machine washable on a gentle 30 degree wool cycle.

100 grams / 400m
