Meet Mrs sporty. This versatile yarn sits between a 4 ply and a dk – she can act as both depending on gauge. As with all the Coara yarns, her blend of Blue Faced Leicester and Shetland make her a woolly wool ideal for colour work.
Our Coara Sport or DK Weight is a cracking yarn. It is a woollen spun 2ply yarn and is a colour workers friend! The yarn is ideal for fairisle work as it is slightly toothy and grippy but with a dash of softness too.
Spun in Yorkshire using British fibres in a blend of 70% Blue faced Leicester and 30% Shetland. Simon & Kirsty have then lovingly added their natural dye magic using both local and ancient dyes to achieve their colour palette.
