Corrie Fingering offers an airy feel paired with a sturdy, round structure. The woolen spun construction traps warmth while maintaining elasticity and stitch clarity.
Why Corriedale?
Corriedale wool is known for its balance. It is softer than many traditional longwools while remaining far more durable than fine wools bred only for softness. It resists sagging, holds its shape, and wears beautifully over time. In a woolen spun yarn like Corrie, Corriedale shines by providing warmth, structure, and longevity without heaviness. This is a yarn meant to be used, not babied.
Note:
After dyeing, all skeins are thoroughly rinsed and soaked in tepid water with lanolin-enriched Eucalan wool wash. They’re then spun in an industrial spin dryer to remove excess water before air-drying naturally in the Fiber for the People® dye studio.
Hand-dyed yarn naturally varies—both between dye lots and within the same lot. This is part of its charm. Please refer closely to the photos in this listing for the most accurate representation of how the colorway appears on this base.
Minor variation between skeins is expected. Any skeins that fall noticeably outside the standard for this colorway will be listed separately as Misfits.
Colorways vary significantly across bases due to differences in ply, fiber content, and whether the yarn is Superwash-treated. Non-Superwash bases tend to produce softer, more blended results—speckles become watercolor-like, and variegation appears more subtle.
Care: Hand-wash in cool water with gentle wool wash. Always air dry.
