  • ‘Westmorland Worsted’ is an alpaca and wool yarn.  It is our own blend of 50% British alpaca with 50% soft, fine Blue Faced Leicester wool.

    Westmorland Worsted is available in its natural oatmeal grey and twelve over-dyed shades which give depth to the colours.

    This yarn knits to worsted or light aran weight knitting patterns, (but always knit a tension swatch).  There are approximately 200m per 100g.  The yarn is sold in 100g hanks.  If you would like us to ball your yarn for you, please make a note on the order.

    Wash gently by hand or in the wool cycle of your machine with a small amount of non-bio detergent.  Do not tumble dry.  The yarn has been washed, but some surface residue dye may come out in the first wash, particularly with the deeper colours.
