5 Ply Gansey Yarn - Feldspar (aka "Light Gray")

$28.50

All skeins 240 yards.

Spun from a blended selection of the lighter colored coopworth fleeces from Buckwheat Blossom Farm. I’m terrible at naming colors, and for years have thought of my coopworth gansey yarns in the same practical shorthand I use when sorting fleeces (that one will be lovely in the light gray mix, this one will add a little heathering to the dark gray mix) which is practical but also a bit of a disservice to the resulting yarn. Both yarns and colorways speak to me of a certain stony tenacity, of the kind necessary for farming in a part of the country so geologically ill suited for it.
