Dive into the wonderful world of natural colour with WYS The Croft Shetland Colours in the beautiful shade of Laxfirth 639. This yarn is a true celebration of Shetland wool, bringing the rustic charm of the islands straight to your needles.
We absolutely adore working with The Croft. It’s spun from 100% Shetland wool, prized for its exceptional softness and strength. This makes it an absolute dream for creating garments and accessories that are both beautiful and long-lasting. Think cosy jumpers, characterful cardigans, and even hard-wearing blankets that will be treasured for years to come.
Laxfirth 639 is a stunning colourway that captures the essence of the Shetland landscape. Its subtle hues evoke images of rugged coastlines, heather-covered hills, and the ever-changing skies above. The yarn has a gentle depth to it, with a slight marled effect that gives it a lovely, natural look.
