Clough Tavern Farm – Yarn

The majority of our raw wool clip is washed, carded into roving and/or spun into yarn off the farm, at Bartlettyarns. It is a blend 5:1 (Scottish Blackface Sheep to Blueface Leicester Sheep). Because Scotties do not naturally have a pure white fleece, the undyed yarn is a rich off-white, “blooming” with a wash and dyes beautifully. The finished wool is exceptionally hard wearing, featuring a natural spring—perfect for a warm sweater yet fine enough for a pretty shawl or hat.
