This fingering weight is a collaboration between Laine magazine and Finnish yarn company Novita, combining breed-specific wools for a yarn with real character. The Falkland wool forms the base, contributing softness and a natural sheen; the Bluefaced Leicester adds lustre and a slight silkiness; and the Kerry Hill brings structure and a gentle rustic quality. The result is springy, well-balanced, and a pleasure to work with. The colour palette was developed specifically for this collaboration: Nordic-inspired tones that work beautifully together for colourwork or standalone. A limited availability yarn worth picking up while it's here.
