It is made from 75% white Corriedale wool and 25% brown Masham wool. By leaving the Masham wool in its natural brown shade and dyeing only the white wool, a beautiful play of colours is created throughout the yarn. Whether you use Mashdale for cables, colourwork or stockinette, it produces a beautiful melange look that adds wonderful depth to the finished garment.

Th yarn is perfect for children's garments, hats and sweaters, and can be knitted either on its own or together with our other yarn qualities – the possibilities are almost endless. The wool used in Mashdale mulesing free.
