Our Devon Naturals range is a celebration of local fibre and British sheep breeds. Available in 4ply, DK, Aran, mini skeins and 100g skeins, as well as fibre tops, these heavenly gradients blend some of our favourite, undyed 100% traceable wool.

Our Devon Naturals range is a curated selection of our local wool in undyed gradient shades. Our Devon Naturals range is a curated selection of our local wool in undyed gradient shades. We offer three blends: One consisting of Exmoor Blueface and Zwartbles, a second one of Grey Exmoor Blueface and Romney, and a third one of Bluefaced Leicester.

Each blend leans into a different characteristic of the wools – the Zwartbles / Exmoor Blueface is super bouncy and robust, the Grey Exmoor Blueface / Romney is softer and more lustrous and the 100% Bluefaced Leicester is squishy and drapey. We hope that these lovely sheepy yarns will suit a variety of projects and help you find the right blend for your heirloom pieces.

As this range is all about the sheep, we’ve kept it simple and named each as if they were our own little flock, with alliterative old timey names that bring us joy!
