Yarn Information
British Breeds is made up of two different yarns; Pure British Breeds and Faded British Breeds.
Pure British Breeds is an undyed breed-specific British wool range. The fleece of each sheep breed has evolved to suit the environment these animals have grown in. This means the yarns in this range have their own unique characteristics.
Faded British Breeds is a subtle washed-out colour range that blends fibre from a North of England Mule (this is a cross of a Bluefaced Leicester Ram and a Northumberland Mule Ewe) with less than 25% dyed British wool. The natural kemp in this fleece gives the yarn an authentic British wool look.
100% of our wool comes from non-mulesed sheep. -

They arrived in excellent shape and were everything I hoped they would be ! ! !
Mysteries are exciting - and that's what this shopping experience was.
Beautiful color. Great feel. I can't wait to start knitting.
Great looking yarn. Surprising, vibrant color. Thanks.
I love Serena it is a perfect year round yarn. The drape is always beautiful and it has great stitch definition. Not to mention that every color produced by Manos is magic. The staff at Fairmount Fibers is always kind and amazing! Thanks so much for my recent order! Christy Pyles
The pattern is well written, the yarn is a dream to knit with and I love the color
Very nice and its easy to follow the pattern, I'm in need of a new scarf, so for a change I'm making it for me.
I love the inventory of merchandise that's available to order online and also patterns too.
The patterns look lovely, and they'll keep me busy while I'm recovering from my surgery. Thank you again.
I’ve made it twice. It’s lovely. The yarn is dreamy. Thank you for coordinating 5 colors as a kit.
I actually had the free pattern delivered, and will definitely try more of the patterns. It was a very easy process, thank you.
