I can't express how delightful this yarn is. It manages to be woolly but with such a great hand -- soft but sproingy (not limp). I'm literally sitting here fondling it while trying to decide what to make with it. I'm not that familiar with the Portland breed although this yarn has made me a fan.
I had been waiting for this yarn to come back into stock. I had some in my stash already and wanted to make The Vanilla Sweater with the Black Welsh Mountain yarn. It was worth the wait. I can tell this yarn isn't/wasn't processed much. Veg matter! The color is unbelievable. I mean this yarn just about came strait off of the sheep to my house!! It's wooly. It smells sheepy. LOVE IT!
I received my order of Armscote Manor yarn and loved it as soon as I opened the bag. I use to spin my own wool years ago and the smell of the Black Welsh Mountain reminded me of those days and the feel is simply delightful. I could not wait to start my project but needed to first finish a pair of socks I was knitting from TWT Rambler yarn (which I also love!) I finally started my project which is the Vanilla sweater by Corrine. I had to adjust my sizing a bit but so far so good and I absolutely love working with and the look of the wool. Can not wait to finish my Vanilla Sweater and start a 2nd sweater out of the Portland Wool Natural color.
