Herd works directly with a collective of Bluefaced Leicester farmers from across the North of England to source the finest wool for their yarn. Once collected and graded it is washed with organic detergent and carded and spun into this beautiful DK weight yarn. All within 150 miles. This yarn is undyed and comes in four wonderful natural shades, but keep an eye out as from time to time Herd also produce limited runs of naturally dyed yarn too.
