L’Est A Laine Merino is a sheep that is specifically bred in Eastern France and is a cross between a local Germanic sheep and Spanish merino sheep. This sheep is particularly resistant to bad weather and walking and give a fine, abundant, long and resistant fiber.

We decided to use this fiber and work with local industries to wash, comb, spin and dye it.

Peregrine is available in seven colors carefully chosen to satisfy knitters and crocheters: one natural color, three pastel colors and three bright colors that are complementary to each other.
The colors have been worked to be as solid as possible without any variation.
While working with these colors, we were surprised to find that the rendering was very close to the rendering of the colors on Blue Faced Leceister. The rendering gave muted colors with a touch of light depending on the exposure. These colors give the yarn a certain timeless sobriety while being original and elegant.

We hope you enjoy it!
