This yarn was handspun by me using a Majacraft Suzie Pro spinning wheel. This is very springy yarn. Wensleydale is a longer staple wool and as such is not quite as soft as Merino or the other shorter staple wools. This particular Wensleydale is very high quality and still quite soft. Some people would be happy with this next to the skin, others may not be. It would certainly be appropriate for hats and/or mittens for sensitive folks.

This yarn will felt. If you do not wish your project to felt, please handwash in cool water with no agitation and lay flat to dry.

Handspun yarns are unique and are not the same as mill spun yarns. A slight variation in thickness throughout the skein is characteristic of handspun yarn and is not considered a defect.
