Today has been a good day for dyeing Wensleydale and Bluefaced Leicester fleece, which is now outside drying. While waiting for them to cook I took the opportunity to sort some BFL curls that were washed a while ago, but which I hadn't got round to sorting through until now. More 10g packs have been added to the website, where you can still get free shipping on orders over £20 with the code WebBack.

We are pleased to say that the website is now working again! We are sorry if you have tried to purchase from us and weren't able to. As an apology we are offering free shipping on all orders over £20 for the rest of August with the code 'WebBack'. This is on everything from hand-dyed curls to hats, if you need them in the current weather! Pictured are some of the Bluefaced Leicester, Wensleydale and Teeswater curls that have been added today, together with a few batts. These are in limited supply so be quick!

If you have tried to reach our website recently you may have found that you can't reach it. This is related to a change in domain name supplier which seems to have resulted in the website losing its connection to the hosting service. We are working on it with the supplier and hope to have the site available again in the next 48 hours or so.

In the meantime here's some delicious 100% Bluefaced Leicester that I have dyed and spun. Having had a lot of BFL fleece lying around for quite a long time I had most of it combed into sliver last year by Rampisham Hill Farm & Mill, and it's gorgeous to use. We have been slowly working our way through the bags - only a couple more to go, which is still about 4kg!

It's too hot to knit, but the spinning wheel adds a pleasant draught around the knees and ankles. This is hand-dyed local Bluefaced Leicester and will be put towards some gloves when my hands aren't too sweaty and sticky.
