Similar to Biches and Buches' Le Petit, Le Cashmere & Lambswool features the same heathered colors and gorgeous lambswool, with cashmere added for softness and a bit of luxury. A bit more plump than Le Petit, Le Cashmere is a perfect yarn on its own for knitting versatile and wearable garments.
Le Petit is created at a family-owned fiber mill in Scotland. Though rustic, the yarn is soft, and once knit, has an incredible bloom. The wool for the yarn is first dyed, and then carded and spun, therefore, the yarn is slightly heathered with tiny flickers of color, creating depth within the knitted fabric. The ball bands feature owner Caroline's handwriting. Biches and Buches describes their yarn as "A beautiful quality, presented in a way that feels like home." Exactly.
Hand wash only.
