Luxuriously Soft, Woollen-Spun Yarn Inspired by the Colours of Scotland
‘In Scotland, we’re surrounded by a world of moss and heather, peat under wide open skies.
When I sat down to create this colourway, I kept coming back to tartan and the way wool has played such a key role in our history.
We are connected by this thread. This yarn plays with that, taking inspiration not from one sett, but from the rich, earthy tones associated with rural life across the country, from the Borders to the Highlands. A kaleidoscope that invites you to look a little closer.
With so much history behind us, I know that whatever comes next, Je Suis Prest.’
Spun from a carefully curated blend of 88% New Zealand Romney/South Country Cheviot and 12% Bluefaced Leicester, this woollen-spun DK yarn offers a wonderful balance of warmth, strength and softness, with an airy texture that makes it a pleasure to knit or crochet.
Beautifully Hand-Dyed by Alex, Unaroo Wool – Named Je Suis Prest (“I Am Ready”), a historic Fraser clan motto, this colourway draws inspiration from the enduring beauty of tartan and the evocative colours of the Scottish landscape.
Natural Fibre, Beautifully Spun – Crafted from 88% New Zealand Romney/South Country Cheviot and 12% Bluefaced Leicester wool, freshly shorn in 2024. This thoughtfully balanced blend combines the natural warmth and resilience of traditional wool with the added softness of Bluefaced Leicester.
