Colourspun is a crafter’s delight. The Virgin wool used to make Colourspun is taken directly from a lamb’s very first shearing. This wool guarantees that is coming from the sheep to your needles, to knit up a warm & soft garment. Each colourway was carefully crafted to unravel its edgy tones, the glamourous & self-striping fashionable colors designed in Tuscany. Aftercare is a breeze as Colourspun is machine washable on a cold gentle cycle, and dried flat.
