Woolstok Light is here!
Woolstok Light, is a new, fingering weight yarn addition to Blue Sky Fibers' Woolstok Collection. Inspired by the much-loved and highly admired Woolstok Worsted, Woolstok Light is the same 100% Highland wool yarn you've come to love in a single ply fingering weight.
Fourteen colors define this well rounded palette, full of versatile neutrals and vibrant pops of colour named after the colours you love from the worsted line.
With neutrals like Grey Harbour, Cast Iron and Highland Fleece to everyday pops of color like Deep Velvet, October Sky and Golden Meadow. Soft and woolly with beautiful stitch definition, this lofty, single-ply yarn takes on a new richness of color. The palette makes it fun to get creative with your knitting by designing with a single colour or creating new combinations for unique colourwork projects.
