Limited Edition & Rare

Here you will find yarns from rare, regional, special or unusual breeds, as named. Due to scarcity, these yarns come and go, much like a guest ale. 

Many are classified as rare or endangered and listed by the Rare Breeds Survival Trust: when we can get the quality we need we make occasional limited editions, so grab them when you can! 

All our yarns knit to a standard tension, so these limited edition breeds can still be used for our range of knitting patterns. 

Please refer to our 4-ply and finer, 5-ply guernsey yarns, Double Knitting, Aran and Chunky pages for information on tension and gauge.
