The is a colourway that I just had to create: Laneway City is inspired by my hometown of Melbourne, where everyone wears black. On the yarn, the colours are a mix of charcoal tones, making it perfect for lovers of black who want something with more depth and texture, and is also ideal for pairing with jewel tones.
BFL Supersock is a soft, durable blend of British Bluefaced Leicester and nylon. Bluefaced Leicester is a British rare breed sheep that produces wool that is next-to-skin soft while being resistant to pilling. This is a smooth 4ply yarn that's just perfect for socks and mittens that are soft and hard-wearing.

We recommend that you treat the yarn kindly by hand-washing in cool water order to keep the colours looking their best.

Beautiful yarn from across the pond.
I haven’t started on my project yet but I love the depth of color & the feel of the yarn. You have gone the extra mile with this color. Also, thank you for taking the time to tissue & tie up the yarn for shipping. It seemed like I was opening presents.
