{"product_id":"bfl-fingering-maelstrom-copy","title":"BFL Fingering · Evening Heather","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe light on the hills above the bay, late in the season, when the heather is past its peak and the colour has deepened into something between bloom and dusk. Not bright. Settled. The particular violet of the hour before dark, when the sky still holds colour but the day has already let go.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvening Heather holds both. Neither cool nor warm, it carries the blue of the sky and the red of the earth. Somewhere between treeline and tide.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn BFL Fingering, Evening Heather arrives quiet, diffuse. The longwool fibre absorbs dye with a soft, matte quality – the violet cool, hushed, closer to atmosphere than colour. Like looking at the hills from a distance, when the light has already started to go.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBFL Fingering is a blend of 80% Bluefaced Leicester and 20% nylon, spun to a fingering weight. Bluefaced Leicester is a longwool breed known for its natural lustre and slightly firmer hand compared to fine merino. The nylon adds durability and resilience. This is a yarn with texture and character, honest in the hand, with good stitch definition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDyed in small batches in Nanoose Bay, British Columbia, using acid dyes on protein fibre. Each skein is individually hand-dyed. Tonal variation between skeins is natural and part of what makes each piece unique.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e80% Bluefaced Leicester \/ 20% Nylon . 115g . 384m (420 yards) .
