Wool Local is a fingering weight yarn from Erika Knight. From fleece to finished yarn in less than 50 miles, Wool Local is both authentically British and environmentally sustainable. Starting at the British wool auction in Bradford, the wool is scoured, combed, spun, dyed, steamed and hanked in the county of Yorkshire.

It is an intimate blend of luxurious Bluefaced Leicester and hardwearing Masham, with its roots in the heartland of British textile manufacturing.

Wool Local has moderate drape and good stitch definition, and it has a slight halo.
