Achness Shetland Blend DK

From our 2024 wool clip: this soft wool-spun bouncy yarn is a grey brown spun from our moorit and white sheep in our own slaughter-free flock and two neighbouring Shetland flocks.

Each clip provides just enough fleece to make a limited amount of yarn and - when it's gone - it's gone!

It's named Bonxie as the grey/brown shade reminds me of the bonxies I've been dive-bombed by, on Shetland, over the years. Terrifying but magnificent birds!
