DEVONIA FIBRE TOPS

£7.50

Devonia is a lustrous blend of three local fibres – Exmoor Blueface, Devon Bluefaced Leicester and Romney resulting in a medley of their characteristics – springy nature, soft handle and fine drape.

Devonia is one of our all time favourite bases. It is rather special to us as it is the first blend we created which was made exclusively using local fibre, something we are now doing more and more of as we loves it! For Devonia we chose a beautiful blend of Exmoor Blueface, Bluefaced Leicester and Romney. The Exmoor Blueface is our local sheep and brings its wonderful springy nature, the Bluefaced Leicester lends its outstandingly soft handle and lustre to the yarn, whilst the Romney adds a beautiful golden sheen and fine drape.

Together they create a wonderfully drapey lustrous blend, with just a dash of woolly bounce.
