This wonderfully squishy yarn is now available in 11 colours. Using superfine fibre to make a bulky yarn is challenging, so Design Spun and I decided to try a boucle as a way to get the bulk without sacrificing wearability. It has amazing loft, and makes the cosiest jumpers and hats imaginable.

Indie dyers using this yarn as a base can also be found here.

Care: Hand wash, cold. Dry flat. May be dry-cleaned.
