4 Ply WOOLTRACE YARN by Laxtons

We are thrilled to provide fully traceable British wool from Laxtons.  Wooltrace was created to deliver positive, environmental, and social change and to create full transparency for customers and consumers. This is now firmly in place and we’re excited to be offering a new fully traceable British yarn. 

A yarn with a mission, Wooltrace supports the ongoing sustainability of the British farming industry, guaranteeing a fair pay for sheep farmers and ensuring the welfare of their flocks. Spun and dyed by their fourth generation family owned mill, this superior quality wool is made with passion and purpose in every fibre. Scan the QR code on each hank to trace the yarn in your hands directly back to the farm(s) via our Farm Finder. A DK weight for ultimate versatility across knit and crochet for garments, accessories and homeware. Available in a palette of 16 sophisticated shades, perfect for imaginative colour work to transform your knits into works of art.
