The Colour

A versatile neutral full of speckles giving warmth and depth, Chiyozuru is one of those reliable colours you’ll find perfect for many projects. Inspired by the Japanese master craftsman who works simply and effectively, creating with great skill, objects that are valued for their practicality but which also hold surprising beauty. With its striking simplicity and mix of burnt orange and slate blue speckles we can imagine this colour being used in classic modern designs.

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.
