England is a limited edition yarn base* for Round Table Yarns. Because the bamboo in the yarn is not fully dyed with the acid dyes used for the wool, the yarn has a slightly heathered look.

The bamboo provides drape to the final project while the BFL wool provides shape, so this is a perfect yarn for shawls and other similar projects.

*My supplier discontinued the undyed base, so I am no longer able to order more and have to thus discontinue this base.
