Bluefaced Leicester is a fantastic fiber! Silky, with a seductive crimp, and a longer average staple length. Easy to spin, comfortable to wear. This is the superwash version, and it is even silkier than regular BFL! And, it will not felt.
This gorgeous colorway is the result of a very fun collaboration between me and Diana (Chewiedox on Ravelry, moderator of the wonderful Spindle Candy forum). When I did my studio fund fundraiser back in Dec 2012-Jan 2013, Diana donated at a level which allowed her to name a colorway. I should have known someone so fibery talented would not be able to stop with just naming! Diana really challenged me with this colorway, asking me to use colors I would not have thought to put together. After a few test dyes, this is the result. Diana requested this colorway be named 'Mr & Mrs B' in honor of the wonderful Bosworths, husband and wife creators and sellers of the wonderful Bosworth spindles, as well as a bunch of other awesome spinning tools.
