{"product_id":"bfl-fingering-old-growth","title":"BFL Fingering · Old Growth","description":"\u003cp\u003eNew growth at the edge of old forest. The particular yellow-green of cedar in early light, when the canopy is backlit and the light seems to come from within. Alive. Ancient.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOld Growth is that green.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot dark. Not quiet. A colour with genuine presence, that reads differently in every light you carry it into. Forest floor and canopy, all at once.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn BFL Fingering, Old Growth is earthy. The longwool fibre absorbs dye with a quiet, matte quality – the olive cool, settled, closer to forest floor than canopy edge. Honest and unhurried.\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 and a natural sheen from the longwool fibre.\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) .
