The Wonder of Wool: A knitter’s guide to pure breed sheep

Knitters, spinners and weavers have never before been so interested in sheep breeds. At yarn shows around the world they can be found seeking out skeins of yarn from their favourite sheep breeds. Provenance is increasingly important to yarn lovers alongside sourcing yarn from farmers using regenerative methods.
The UK has more ancient breeds than any other country and the rich diversity of breeds and the unique characteristics of British wool are valued worldwide. This is a guide to the pure breeds of sheep found in the UK, exploring their history, habitat, appearance and, of course, their fleece and the resulting yarn.
Historically, British sheep originated from three main sources: longwools and a few shortwools from the Romans; ancients from the island of Soay in Scotland; and mountain breeds from the Vikings. Today, sheep breeds used for knitting are categorised slightly differently: there are the primitives, longwools, and downs and shortwools.
Knitwear designer and author, Justine Lee, set out on a search for the British ‘cashmere’ and knitted with yarn from each of the 62 pure breeds in order to find the ones that produce the best yarn for hand knitting. She has designed 10 knitting patterns for garments and accessories made using yarn from 10 different pure breed sheep, focusing on the ones that provide the softest and most beautiful wool for hand knitted projects.
The UK has a long history of sheep farming and has contributed significantly to the development and preservation of many sheep breeds. Although the sheep are native British breeds all of the sheep featured in this collection can be found in the USA and Australia which also have a strong tradition of sheep farming and conservation.
Beautiful black and white photography captures the unique look and characteristics of these wonderful animals that mean so much to fibre lovers around the world.

Not so good….
Style: KIT
On a brand new car used the citrus car wash product with the 2 bucket method and the interior and glass cleaner. The citrus product sank to the bottom of the 5 gallon bucket, despite all efforts couldn’t get it thoroughly mixed in the water. Used it anyway with the microfiber mitt - this mitt was excellent and I was satisfied with the wash (car was clean before washing except for bird droppings) except for eye irritation from a teeny splash. On to drying - the included microfiber drying towels were worse than worthless. They stuck to the surface of the car and shedded fibers all over the paint. I had to hose off the car to get rid of the purple lint it deposited wherever it touched the car. Larger chunks of lint came off the cloth as well. I used the interior and glass cleaner only on the interior of the windshield. Got in the car this AM, there was a haze on the entire windshield inner surface. Chemical Guys has excellent marketing and video tutorials but I’d recommend purchasing better quality components rather than what’s in this box. The ingredients in the wash, interior cleaner, and wheel cleaner are also not good for the environment, eyes, or skin. I wonder what the runoff from this one washing will do to our and neighbors’ vegetation.

As good as high end
Size: 38W x 30L, Color: Navy
These pants fit and feel like much more expensive pants. They’re true to size and very comfortable! Prefer them to jeans any day of the week and are as dressy as I need!
