    • We've been searching high and low to find more beautiful lace weight yarn to add to our selection, and are so pleased to say that this beautiful yarn by WYS totally makes the cut!

      If you're looking for a luxurious lace weight yarn, to either hold on its own, or alongside another yarn, Exquisite Lace is an exceptional choice.

      Spun from sustainable fleeces from Falkland wool with 20% high-quality mulberry silk. It has a gentle twist and wonderful sheen, which we LOVE on the needles, and especially in the fabric it makes. 

      Beautifully soft, yet durable, with wonderful drape, sheen and woolliness. It's perfect for elegant flowing shawls, and lightweight luxurious garments.

      We love the updated colour palette too, which makes it perfect to hold alongside other yarns on our shelves, to achieve perfect gauge, or to add softness.

      Really a great British yarn, and at a really good price point too, for a whopping 800m on the skein!

    • "Reared, Sheared & Spun in Britain!"

      Situated in the original home of the British Worsted Spinning Industry, West Yorkshire Spinners combines state of the art technology with generations of expertise and unrivalled know-how to produce British hand knitting yarns and knitted garments of exceptional quality.

      At West Yorkshire Spinners we are extremely proud of our British Heritage, we are one of the few remaining worsted spinning companies left in the United Kingdom. We are also one of very few who still develop and market yarns in-house.  This affords us the freedom to innovate which sets us apart from the competition.  We firmly believe that knowing where our raw material comes from guarantees that the quality of the finished product is consistently high.

      We source all our own raw material which is then produced into knitting yarn in our state of the art factory based here in West Yorkshire. This reduces the carbon footprint of our products and also enables us to manufacture at a very low cost.
