Wensleyhaze - Glimmerite

Please note the shipping date for this product is 26th April 2024. 

The Colour

Inspired by the grey mineral, which on closer inspection hides a rainbow of colours that radiate when the light hits it. Our interpretation is both neon and neutral, with a base of grey lilac tones interspersed with bright neon patches of yellow, pink and blue. Glimmerite is a surprising and eye catching colour.

The Base

Wensleydale is a rare species of longhair British sheep and its wool is only sourced in small batches from local farmers. 

It has more lustre than normal wool and pairs brilliantly with Kid Mohair Silk for the extra softness, which is exactly what we’ve done to create our magnificent Wensleyhaze base. Great stitch definition for more rustic knitting projects.
