A captivating aran wool inspired by the landscape, culture and heritage of the awe-inspiring Shetland Islands. The Croft Aran is produced from 100% British Shetland wool, and is available in a collection of stunning solid shades and unique tweed prints that really capture the essence of these remote and dramatic Islands. Also known as The Croft Aran Colours & The Croft Shetland Colours.

This aran yarn has a soft and silky handle, and high levels of crimp and wave in the fibre, making it a real pleasure to work with. Perfect for colour work, textures and cables, this much-loved yarn allows your cosy knits to shine.

Shetland wool is a favourite with our master spinners, a fibre celebrated for its fineness, warmth and strength, so we’re delighted to be working with this fantastic fleece through our exclusive partnership with Jamieson & Smith of Shetland.

Spun at our mill in Yorkshire.
