BFL Sport/ DK

BFL Sport/DK is the yarn base I reach for most when knitting garments and shawls. It sits comfortably between sport and DK weight, making it wonderfully versatile and suitable for a wide range of patterns. Its gauge flexibility makes it a great choice for many sport and DK patterns, giving knitters room to play with gauge and fabric density.

Bluefaced Leicester produces fabric with beautiful drape, excellent stitch definition, and durability that softens with wear — ideal for sweaters, shawls, and heirloom pieces that will be worn often.

The fibre’s naturally warm tone and subtle sheen give dyed colourways depth and richness. Because this yarn is untreated (non-superwash), colours blend softly, creating gentle, watercolour-like variation rather than crisp speckles.
