It was love at first sight when we saw all that The Fibre Company had to offer, and met the founder Daphne, who has a passion for yarns that inspire, with a focus on natural blends. With weights from fingering to bulky, there really is something to keep every fibre fanatic happy. Based in Cumbria in the north of England, their muse is more than often, their stunning surroundings.
Inspired by the wildlife, plants and untamed wilderness of Acadia, The Fibre Company have created this exquisite range of yarn. A sumptuous, slightly tweedy blend of springy merino wool, the softest baby alpaca, and silk, which adds the slightest, most delicate sheen.
A DK weight yarn, Acadia has 2 cleanly spun plies. It has a heathered base, which is then overdyed to give a slightly rustic look, and soft neps which add to the subtle tweediness. An excellent yarn for knitting and crocheting the softest scarves, shawls and accessories.
