Cheers

Cheers is a single-ply, DK weight yarn, which is a crossbred wool at 23microns. The sheep that the wool comes from is a crossbreed between a Lincoln and a Merino. Lincoln wool is known for its luster and remarkably long staple length. With the majority of this breed raised just a short distance from the North Sea, the wool from these sheep were very important to early English exports of both wool and fabric. Crossing the Lincoln with Merino yields a dual-purpose sheep with a resilient fleece that balances Merino's softness with Lincoln's long, lustrous staple that creates a lovely yarn to craft with.
