This is 100% natural ecru (white) Bluefaced Leicester combed wool top. BFL is a very popular fine English fibre and is considered to be very reliable coming from a lustrous, silky longwool fleece. Very versatile it is certainly fine enough to be very comfortable next to the skin yet durable and long wearing. BFL is highly prized and rightly so and can be compared in character to mohair and alpaca. Use it with confidence for spinning and felting. Popular choice for fibre blends and can be dyed.
This will depend on how finely you spin plus the size and tension of the final knitted garment. The weights below are a helpful guide but cannot be guaranteed. If you are unsure, do what I always do and buy too much (that's what stashes are for!)
