Overview
The Corriedale breed developed from crossing fine-wool Merinos with longwool Lincoln sheep, a combination that created soft-to-the-touch wool with a long staple length. Stone Wool Corriedale is spun from carefully sourced Corriedale fleeces, and strikes the perfect balance of hard-wearing and supple. This yarn is perfect for socks and other projects such as hats and jumpers and offers great stitch definition. It works as a wonderful option for colour work too.

If using more than one colour in your garment it is recommended that you block a swatch to check for colour bleeding when using high contrasting colours. Also due to the individual nature of hand-dyed yarn, I would always recommend alternating skeins.
