This is a very soft tweed yarn with nice drape and airy feeling. I would suggest it even for sensitive skin. Laxtons UK-based yarn manufacturer committed to ethical practices and environmental sustainability. Through its Wooltrace service, the company provides fully traceable, renewable, and biodegradable yarn that supports British farmers, ensures fair wages, and promotes animal welfare. By sourcing locally, it helps reduce carbon emissions and combat microplastic pollution.

One of the characteristics of plant dyeing is that there will never be two completely identical skeins, so for larger pieces, it is recommended to alternate the skeins during knitting so that there is no noticeable contrast. 

Although I do everything I can to ensure that the yarns do not lose their colour, I rinse them several times after dyeing, but I still advise that if you use several different colours in one knit, wash the skeins first to make sure that the different colours do not touch each other.
